Our son William "Billy" lived his entire life in San Diego County. He faced many challenges and made some tough choices along the way, but in the past five years, he truly began to turn things around. Despite everything, Billy always had a big heart and was the kind of person who would help you out if you were in trouble. He never married, but he and his girlfriend Lisa were together for over 24 years, supporting each other through thick and thin.

On the morning of February 19, 2026, Billy was found non-responsive. He had gone to bed as usual, and his girlfriend Lisa tried to wake him in the night but couldn't. Emergency services were called, but he was pronounced dead at that time. His sudden passing has left us heartbroken and unprepared for the expenses that come with saying goodbye.

We are in need of help to pay for his cremation. I am bedridden and have been for the past three years. We simply do not have the extra funds for these unexpected costs. There will be no service—just a simple cremation, and we plan to spread his ashes in the ocean, a place he loved. If you are able, please consider helping us give Billy the peaceful farewell he deserves. Any support, no matter the amount, would mean so much to our family during this difficult time. Thank you for your kindness and for keeping Billy in your thoughts.
