our girl, Billie
Billie was a down-to-earth, positive, caring person. A 25-year-old who loved life, she made sure everyone around her was enjoying the ride with her. Drawn in by her magnetic personality, she lit up any room she entered - her smile was contagious. A traveller, adventurer, best friend, daughter, sister, girlfriend and niece.
