Preceded by: Sidney Douthit – husband, William Douthit – son, Robert Barnes – father, Flora Barnes – mother, sisters Jean, Barbara and Cleo.

Billie is survived by son Jeffrey Douthit, daughter Jennifer Ross, sisters, Patsy Graves and Elizabeth Schlesselman, and grandchildren Ryan, Kalyn and Nicholas.

A couple of her favorite sayings were “Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without” and “Mean what you say, say what you mean just don’t be mean when you say it!”

Billie was born on October 5, 1934 in Idabel, OK to Robert and Flora Barnes. She grew up on a farm, grew and canned food, raised cattle and knew the value of hard work. She was an avid reader and loved a bargain, and her favorite place to shop was a resale called Angel’s Attic.

“The angel that presided at my birth said “Little creature formed of joy and mirth, go, love without the help of anything on earth” William Blake

Sioux Prayer of Passing

Never the spirit is born 
The spirit will cease to be never 
Never the time when it was not
End and beginning are dreams
Birthless and deathless and changeless 
Remains the spirit forever 
Death has not touched it at all 
Dead though the house of it seems.                                                                                              

The prayer that made the most impact in her life was   “I place myself and all of my affairs in the hands of my Father, with a childlike trust. That which is for my highest good will come to me.”

Billie was a donor to a Crital Care fund. In memoriam you may make a donation under her name to www.MyGoodDays.org.
