David and Micah with Uncle Billy

David and Micah appreciate Billy's quiet, gentle demeanor and tried to find some time to sit and talk whenever we were visiting. Micah says that the day this was taken, she threw a big, huge tantrum. She was in Billy's room, maybe put there by me, screaming and kicking her feet, angry and frustrated that we could go on laughing and talking, in the other room. (Laughter and talking aside, my stomach was probably in knots. I never could take the sound of a screaming child, especially my own.) The door opened slowly and Billy came in with M & M's on his open palm, offering them to her to try to cheer her up. I don't remember the event but Micah speaks of it often.
