Billie Jean Timmons of Frankford, DE passed away suddenly on Friday, April 30, 2021 at Atlantic General Hospital in Berlin, MD. She was 60 years old.

Billie Jean worked as a manager of Ferschke's Beauty Supply in Milford and also Mark's Cigarette Outlet in Seaford for many years. Her hobbies included painting and crafting. Billie Jean was a very loving and caring person who would always put others before herself, but she also had a stubborn and opinionated side to her as well and would definitely let you know exactly how she felt. She was a wonderful mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend who will be dearly missed by all who knew her.
She is survived by a daughter Hope Timmons (Reuben Pruitt) of Delmar, DE and a son Timothy Timmons (Jade Ottinger) of Frankford, DE, a sister Penny Burton Meadows (Gary) of Salisbury, MD, and two brothers Jackie Burton (Mary Beth) of Millsboro, DE and Wayne Burton of Salisbury, MD.
