This memorial was created to treasure and remember, Basil C "Billie" Backford, 92, born in 1930 on the hill in Nushagak, AK and passed away in 2023 in Anchorage, AK. He will be remembered for his friendly demeanor and love of storytelling and sharing his insights!
When he told stories about his life, they were as big as any fish story, and they meant so much! Those will be missed the most.
"Goodbyes are not forever.
Goodbyes are not the end.
They simply mean I'll miss you, until we meet again." ~unknown
