Billy's Story

years. I try to run 3 miles before work at least 4 times a week. The Lord has blessed me with good health and as you can see I am turning gray but that is alright with me. During my years at Achilles I made some wonderful friends, Martha Jones [ Schmidt] and Paul Chambliss. I loved the old Achilles School because the school had characture. I would love to find my old friends from Achilles and chat.
Paul Chambliss was my best friend during that time and we had lots of fun playing basketball and baseball together. Some of my old friends from Achilles are still around. I talk to Mike King weekly. I really loved the old achilles school and all the people I met there.
