- Billy Bowie - THANK YOU Betty and I would like to express our thanks to each and every one of you. The reception Saturday was more than we could have dreamed. We thank you (those who had a part in making sure every detail was perfect) for the love and care that it took to pull off such a monumental task. We were over-whelmed by the number of friends who came by. We were so humbled by the many words of encouragement and love. We love you and will miss you. Thank you for such a loving gesture you showed in the love offering and for the many cards and personal comments. The time we spent serving at FBC seemed to go by ever so quickly. This was done because you made it such a joy. I want to express my appreciation to some of those who have made my service so smooth: The Ministerial Staff, Jean, Tonya, Terry, Bessie, Richard, Janell, Sue Ann, Leah, Children’s Choir Leaders, Mary Ann Ballew, The Adult Choir, Adult Handbells, Praise Ringers, and Deacons. I know I only had space for just a few. You all are so very special to us.
