South Junior High, and Newburgh Free Academy. Billy played
different sports growing up such as Pop-Warner Football from
'88 to '91. In '93 he joined the (Gold backs Football Team).
He also played basketball for NFA and became a well-known
all-around Athletic Star throughout the community with
several schools offering full scholarships. Billy enjoyed
going to Glen Hinds Community Center where he would meet up
with his childhood/adult friends. That's where his
superstratum begin, he participated in all of the activities
such as Karate, Boxing, and Wrestling. He and his friends
would be on the basketball court pretending to be big-time
superstars only to show off their new kicks to the little
girls around the way. Billy was also known for dressing in
the latest name-brand gear (Fly guy) he made no joke about
his shoe game even as a kid. Billy's sense of humor with his
pranks and jokes will always be cherished memories we can
reminisce on for laughs. He's deserving of being celebrated
like a King because he inspired us all to NEVER give up.
Until we meet again, we will always love you!!!
