I was lucky to work with BJ when I started at Epic. He was a great mentor to me, and his humor, wit, and intellect were all fantastic! We kept in touch for a few years after I left the company. You have my sympathy during this difficult time - I will hold all of the good memories close to my heart.

I am so sorry to hear of Billy's passing. I work as a Caregiver for Billys mom, Penny. I never had the pleasure of meeting Billy personally, but heard so many wonderful stories about him, including his intelligence, his love of computers, and his good job with Epic Company. Sending Prayers to the family, as I'm sure he will be greatly missed as a son, brother, uncle and a friend.💕
