Our beloved Billy Boy Blue passed away unexpectedly, likely due to natural causes, on October 8, 2025. It is hard to find the words because he was the light in so many of our lives. His laugh was infectious. His kindness was steady. He showed up. If you needed a hand, a sounding board, or a quiet companion, he was there without hesitation. You never had to question his motives because they were so pure. He was a confidant to many and a true friend to all.

Billy loved people with his whole heart. He celebrated our wins and stayed close through our hardest days. He made ordinary moments feel like home—a quick check-in that somehow always came at the perfect time, a joke that cut through the noise and reminded us to breathe. He gave more than he ever asked for, and he leaves a space that cannot be filled, only honored.

We are raising funds to assist with funeral and memorial expenses, as well as immediate needs that arise in the coming days. No plans have been made yet, but as we receive more information, we will absolutely share updates here so everyone who loved him can gather, remember, and celebrate his life. If we are fortunate to exceed the goal, additional funds will be used to further honor his memory.

If you knew Billy, you knew his joy. You knew his laugh. You knew his goodness. Please consider donating, sharing this page, and leaving a memory or photo below. Your support is a way to carry his light forward and to remind us how deeply he was loved.

With gratitude,

The Tiki Family
