"Billy Redd was a very special man. He always had a personal comment for me as he stopped to chat at the Membership Desk when arriving at the YMCA We shared any "rewards" we had earned with our Walmart "Savings Catcher," what a beautiful day we were enjoying, how prolific was his crop of tomatoes/cucumbers (which he generously shared), the video of his Amazing Birthday candle and other pleasantries which were part of our friendship. Billy meant a lot to me and I miss him already. My sympathy to each of you - his dear family who were so lucky to have such an honorable man as your Patriarch."
