Billy Batson was a no-nonsense, straight-shooter and true friend, besides being a fantastically gifted musician and wordsmith, who some may have considered either a rogue or a sage.

Sadly, Billy passed away after a long battle with lung cancer on September 5, 2017. Yet, his presence remains with those who knew him… those who loved, appreciated and still marvel at his music and razor-edged perception and sardonic wit!
