I am so sorry to learn about Billie's passing. I have tried to find her address over the years, searching and finding nothing. We have moved several times over the years and I lost touch. Now this notice came up and I am so sad. I have wanted to write to her so badly, to stay in touch. I only met Billie once, in November 1999, but I heard about her for many years from my dad, Richard C. Phillips. Our visit was wonderful as she shared memories of my dad and we were able to see where he grew up. He loved her so much. I am so sorry that I never again connected with Billie and more of our Iowa family. If you are interested, I would love to hear from anyone connected to my dad, Richard (Dick) Phillips, Gladys Bartlowe's son.
