Billie Izquierdo 
July 17, 1932 - June 10, 2005 

Memorial Mass will be held at St. Philip the Apostle Church, 7100 Stockdale 
Hwy., Monday, June 13, 2005 at 10:00 a.m. Billie Rae Izquierdo born to Bill 
and Ruby Hailes on July 17, 1932 in Pampa, Texas, died June 10, 2005 after a 
lengthy illness. Billie resided in Kern County from the age of five attending 
Fruitvale School & KCHS (BHS). While working at Glenns Drive-In during her 
junior year in high school, she met and ultimately married Bud Izquierdo. 
During 55 years of marriage they raised four children: Teresa, Manuel, 
Jennifer, and Cindy. A life-long homemaker, she also maintained a 37 year 
career as a consultant and director in Mary Kay Cosmetics. She lived 
passionately the Mary Kay motto: God first, family second, career third. With 
her husband and family together they created special memories at their 
favorite spot, Avila Beach where they all gathered for the last week of her 
life. A people-person, Billie never met a stranger. A favorite quote was A 
stranger is a friend I have yet to meet. She was constantly caring and giving 
of herself to the people in her life. One could always count on a parade of 
family and friends in their home, a place where all flourished under a blanket 
of unconditional love. Billie was loved and will be missed by all. She was 
preceded in death by parents Bill and Ruby; sister, Dorothy Cone and grandson, 
Eric Howard. She is survived by her husband, Bud; daughter, Teresa Izquierdo 
Howard and husband Billy; son, Manuel Izquierdo; daughter, Jennifer Williams 
and husband Duane and daughter, Cindy Izquierdo. Grandchildren are Nikol 
Wilson and husband Steve, Bodie Howard and Bridgette Crisostomo, Codie Howard, 
Matt Howard, Clint Howard, Corrie Gannaway and husband Corey and Joshua 
Williams; great-grandchildren, Ryan, Caitlin, Cheyenn and Logan Wilson: 9 step 
great-grandchildren and sister, Susie Williamson and husband Dee, numerous 
cousins, nieces and nephews. Visitation will be June 12 at Greenlawn Southwest 
Memorial Chapel from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Reception to follow funeral mass. 
Special thanks to Hoffman Hospice for their loving care of our mom and 
compassionate support of our family.
