Austin, TX Friday, April 12, 2019 My deepest sympathies to Charlene, Donna, and all the family members. I so loved Aunt Billie and have the most wonderful memories of Aunt Billie and Uncle CJ. They were both very special to me - and to everyone who knew them. I wish I could be there with the family, but I am currently traveling. All my love, Lori Matthews.
