It was almost impossible not to love Billy.  From birth Billy would always have a smile or hug to share, a joke or smart comment, a passion to be the best and make the best out of everyone and everything around him.

Billy's passion was racing, and was in the midst of pursuing his dream. He loved bringing others to their fullest potential.

Billy loved building and making things from scratch. Billy loved all things outdoors - hunting, fishing, archery, 4 wheeling, and golfing.

Last but not least, he loved traveling and camping with Lindsay and their fur babies, Chase and Dash.

Billy will be missed greatly by his family's,  racing family and friends.
