She loved her shiny and sparkly clothes that glistened in the lights or in the sun's rays on a bright day. She loved beautiful flowers that dotted a garden path, a summer valley, or spring-time field. She loved yodeling, and could yodel like no one's business. Mrs. Billie loved Elvis, his music and the man. But, most loved to her was her family.
