Fredericksburg Police Department, Marble Falls Police Department, Burnet Police Department, and
Blanco County Sherriff's office, before being asked to start a police station in Johnson City. He
served at Chief of Police in Johnson City until 2005.

The family would like to thank the caring staff at Knopp Nursing Home #2 and Votive Hospice who
helped take care of Billy during his final days. The kindness and compassion shown will be
remembered forever.
There are no funeral services planned. A private celebration of life will be held at a later date.
Donations in Billy's honor can be made to The Grace Center, the 100 Club, or the charity of one's
