Billy Mays will be missed. May his family find comfort and solace in knowing that millions of fans are praying for them right now in this time of need.
My boyfriend and i are shocked about Billy’s death.We loved his new show pitchmen. R.I.P Billy and my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
I can’t believe the people saying horrible things about him and his death. Those people are the ones that shouldn’t be living
Even though I thought most of his commercials were annoying. It’s not going to be the same without Billy Mayes on TV. I would like to send out a prayer for his family in this time of need.May GOD be with you all. Long live the commerical king “Billy Mayes”.
Tough week.
GOSH MAN LITTO WORDS I HAVE BUT DIS REALLY SUCK!! R.I.P?!
Rest in peace bill mays we will miss you
I will remember him always with this shirt: Check it here!
I HATE to say this, but MAYBE Billy Mayes contributed to his death by raising HIS Blood Pressure WHENVER he did an ad! ALL his ads made it seem like ALL his recipients where VERY hard of hearing! Maybe HE should have toned it down a BIT!
