"Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them..." Matthew 6:1 NIV. Billie will be fondly remembered by the many lives she touched and the love that she unselfishly gave. Yet, the acts of kindness and tenderness that we are aware of are a small sample of the charitable acts she performed. As a mother, grandmother, and nurse, Billie lived Matthew 6:1, believing good should be done "in secret." For every hot meal, hug, or gift, we received, she offered countless more to family, friends, patients, and strangers. She made it her mission to know the small, personal things that would have a huge impact. To many, Billie was the embodiment of love - always giving, never demanding. Her compassionate nature was matched by her strength. When life was most difficult, she was at her best, providing comfort and support for her loved ones even when she was suffering herself. And when her health declined, her spirit never did. She never stopped being the rock that the family relied on. We thank God that we had the good fortune to have loved her and to have been loved by this amazing woman.
She is survived by her sons Tim Anderson of Kountze and Andy Anderson of New Orleans, Louisiana; daughters Reba Jordan &husband Mike of Rockwall, Angela Raney &husband John of New Orleans, Louisiana, Brenda Higgins &husband Joe of Longview, and Torie Fulgham &husband Otis of Kountze; a special friend Glenda Smith of Nederland; nine grandchildren; eleven great grandchildren; as well as three great great grandchildren. She is preceded in death by her husband Robert Anderson, sons Charles Anderson and Phillip Anderson, and sisters Erma Anderson and Mary Ann Anderson Cain.
