Our family was so sad to hear of Billy's passing. Our Mom and Dad worked for him for many years at the Sherriff's Department. He was always a great supporter of my Dad and was there for him during his illness. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. The family of Charles and Pat Laird.

So very saddened by the passing of this great man. He welcomed me into the family fold with great gusto. I truly loved, respected, and admired Billy —He truly loved his family. I said this about my uncle and mentor at his passing a few years ago: “How do we replace a giant? We don’t; we simply feel a huge absence when he’s gone.” Billy has been the same. Jane and I send love and comfort to Martha, The Boys, and all the rest. Byron

I had the pleasure of working for Sheriff Billy Payne in the early 80's just before he left office. Sheriff Payne was a caring, good, kind hearted, hard working, family man. He treated each of his deputies and other workers as his own family. My prayers are with his family for their loss. I have always considered Sheriff Payne as a good friend.. He will be sadly missed.
