• 32. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. He was a remarkable individual who impacted the lives of people he had never met, nor will have ever had the chance to meet. May God welcome him into his home and allow him to pitch halos in Heaven.

• 37. Ever since I saw Billy Mays in commercials, I always wondered if he were the same kid who grew up across the street from my son David and I in NE Ft. Lauderdale. 197-1980 approx. Younger brother Johnny and 2 sisters, Laura and Juanita.. Mom's name was Peppita. Would love to contact the family if so. In either case.. may He rest in peace, and may his family be given strength as they walk through this terribly difficult time.

• 38. To the "May's Family" my family and I are deeply saddened by your loss. Billy was one of our favorite bay area neighbors and TV personalities who truly brought great products and a wonderful look into the behind scenes of being a pitchman with morals and character. Billy, you will be missed. We wish your family the strenght to move forward and know that a lot of us out here in your community will always think kindly of you. Rest In Peace, Billy

• 41. The world has lost a nice man and a pitchman who believed in the products he pitched. He made you happy to be in his presence. I pray for his family and friends to find peace and comfort. It is hard we are losing the 'young' ones close in age to the loyal viewers. That makes me and others question our own mortality. Live life to the fullest, folks.
