Billie met the love of her life and future husband, Allen Young, in San Angelo, Texas and they married in 1958. After living in Texas and Tennessee, they moved to Boone County, Arkansas in 1962.

She also served as Secretary-Treasurer for the Valley Springs Volunteer Fire Department for over 20 years.

Her family loved her homemade biscuits every morning and enjoyed homemade desserts. Billie was an avid supporter of local sports and her family's endeavors, especially her grandkids and son-in-law, traveling all over the state to watch them compete. She loved her family and was proud of her kids and grandkids and their many accomplishments.
