Sending sincere condolences to my Morrison family. Rest In Peace Billy Joe!😢
Sure going to miss my cousin and best friend. Many good times. Lco powwow our last one, we had a good time. Miss you forever.
My condolences go to the Morrison family. Billy Joe was a great friend all these years. All we had to do was see each other and the laughs, memories, and stories of old times in the cities when we were in our twenties would keep us laughing for hours. I feel honored just to be mentioned as one of his friends. His traditional lifestyle and beliefs were also very honorable.
