We were just looking at Heidi & Adams wedding DVD. We are so very happy to have footage of Billie & Randy as host and hostess for the wedding. It brought a mixture of smiles and tears.
We cherish the time we had and are grateful for the friendship that developed over the years we were in Alexandria. Thank you for reaching out to bless us and our children in so many ways. May the blessings that you poured out on us return with double sweetness to you.
Looking forward to seeing you all soon either here or in the everlasting glory above.

I was reminded about the first time I met Billie and your family while traveling this week for work. Billie’s kind direction and support for me a complete stranger, Randy's fatherly advice on how to handle the stress of an intense working situation and Ashley’s joyful exuberance made me feel accepted among new people. I will remember Billie as a woman who reached out to strangers, a wife whose encouragement allowed her husband to be a kind and gentle man and a mother who taught her daughter the importance of sharing joy with others.
Billie’s reward is great and I prayr your family will be blessed with a peace in knowing she is finally home, resting in complete joy. You all remain in my prayers, God bless.

In thinking back, when Billie was born she was very tiny and her first week or so was spent in an incubator at North Gate Hospital. Billie had good care because her Mother's boss was the doctor who delivered her. Billie grew-up being a good caretaker of other kids - especially in her dance class. She would mother the kids and help them to get situated when they had a recital I remeber her playing her saxaphone in the High School Band, at the Unitersity of Washington in Marching Band, and in Stage Band. Billie met and married Randy, the love of her life, having three wonderful children, whom she loved very dearly. Her Mother and I loved her dearly and thanked her for her witness to us when Christ came into her life. Linda and I will sorely miss her, and are thankful that she's in Heaven - where the pain is gone.
Much Love,
Dad and Linda

We remember Billie when she came to Jamaica on a mission trip with World Servants. We remember how brave she was even when she was injured. She did not want to be served but wanted to serve and so she continued to be an inspiration to the entire group. She had such a beautiful spirit. We believe that she will hear "Well done, thou good and faithful servant," and that the Lord will reward her richly.

Billie was a wonderful person. She worked with me at Dr. Jane Person-Nydams office for a couple of years. She taught me about love and about sacrafice. She was an inspiration and a mother that I only hoped I could be. Hugs to the family~Becky

The world has lost one of Christ's champions. Praise God we have His promise of eternal life together. We are soooo looking forward to joining Billie in heaven where we will all be free from sickness and pain. Praise God for her life's testimony living on through her family and many other people like myself whom she touched through God's love. We will miss her very much until the day we are reunited through Christ our Savior. We send out a prayer to the rest of you Stendera's for comfort and peace, and wish very much we could be there with you now. Love you guys!!!

There are so many fond memories that we have of Billie, especially for Sarah. Billie was, after all, my Minnesota Mom. Her love and care for me will never be forgotten. I praise God that her pain is over and she is dancing with Jesus. We can't wait to see her again in heaven!
My thoughts and prayers are with my dear friend Amy and the whole family that I have come to love so much. May God be your strength through this difficult time and may he guide you day by day.

How thankful I am for that one last time to be with Billie before she went home to be with Jesus and for the chance for her to met Michael. I am a different person today because of the faithful friendship and prayers of Billie. I will always remember her passion for mission work and will continue to think of her example as I keep pressing on. You were a great leader and friend.

Dear Randy, Amy, Ashley, Matt, and family -
I am so very sorry for your loss. I only met Billie a few times, and this was before she was battling cancer, but I remember her as a kind, generous, and godly woman. My heart goes out to you during this difficult time, and I praise God that she is now with Him, and no longer suffering. My God give you comfort and peace in the days ahead.

How wonderful, how marvelous...and my song shall ever be...How marvelous, how wonderful is my Savior's love for me! We were encouraged by the sweet words giving a 'glimpse of heaven' while at the same time grieved to hear of Billie's passing into glory. I know that while we rejoice that she is free from pain, you live now without her in your life. With memories, but no arms to hold on to. We pray for you in your grief. We remember Billie in her advocacy for missions, particularly in Turkey. Thank you, God, for the amazing place she filled in this world and for the blessing she was to us and others. With much love, Fikret & Darlene (in Turkey)

We weep with you in your sadness, but we also rejoice with you in the knowledge that Billie is healed and enjoying the unimaginable beauty and joy of being in the presence of her Savior. He will bring you comfort and hold you during this time. Heaven is now even more of an awesome home to look forward to with Billie there. Our time here is so short compared to eternity. In a blink of an eye, we will all be there together. In the meantime, God's grace is abundant and never-ending. He loves you and will hold you all in His strong arms. Love In Christ, Mike and Rosi

Words will never take the hurt from the family's heart and make it all better. That job belongs to God and Father Time. What Dana and I can do is take some of the hurt from you and carry it around for a while. This we gladly do for a family we love so much. So we ask each of you to send a little of your pain to us asap. UPS next day would be nice. Billie is at this moment in a state of perfect health in a place where we all want to go. What a comfort that must be to all of you.

I will always remember Billie's smile and her warmth. She was strong, intelligent, gracious and fun! I remember the last time I saw her she was full of great conversation. We shopped at Target and had a great time. I can only imagine what Billie must be experiencing in heaven! I know she is now decorating her mansion!!! God bless your family during this time of mourning and remembering what a wonderful mom, wife, sister, daughter she was! What a time of rejoicing it will be when we all see Jesus!

Stendera family, you have such an incredible legacy to carry forward. I can only think of Jesus' words 'Well done, good and faithful servant'...isnt this the aim of all our lives? I know when we meet her again we will enter into His joy and be forever wondering about the love of our Great God and Savior!
