So sorry for your loss. Ed and Lorraine Rotmer
So very sorry to hear of Billie’s passing. She was a wonderful lady who was devoted to her both her family and her job. We worked together for over twenty years and shared a lot of good times. She loved talking to her coworkers and was always interested in their family life. She always had a box of animal crackers on hand for when the firemen brought their kids to the office. I will miss her and offer my sincere condolences to Charles, her children and grandchildren.
My sincerest condolences to you, Robin and Bruce and Peter on the passing of your Mom. I remember her warm smile. I wish you and your families peace and loving memories of her.
Sincere condolences to Charlie and your family on the loss of Billie. Always a very caring and kind person.

So very sorry for loss, charlie. Billie was apparently in Hospice with Marsha. Both wonderful, bright, loving companions. May she rest in peace.
Cousin Billie was one a million – it was so endearing to hear Robin speak Finberg-Gordon for she was truly a combination of both families combining her winning personality, her positive attitude, and her love of family and friends. For me – it was the end of our winning team! Much love always Cousin Billie!
