She was a life-long resident of Kansas City and graduated from Northeast High School. She was a strong and caring person with a delightful sense of humor to all that knew her. More than anything, Billie loved her children and grandchildren. Her ordeal with Cancer was fought for 9 months, and the concern that she received from her many friends and supporters is greatly appreciated by her family. The family would also like to express their gratitude for the extraordinary care that the staff at St. Mary�s Hospital and the staff at KC Hospice showed for Billie. She will be missed more than we can say. Billie was survived by her husband of 55 years, Jerry Cosentino; three sons, Don with wife Paula, Victor with wife Rita, and Jim Cosentino; eight wonderful grandchildren, Melissa, Suzanne, Callie, Shelby, Victor, Dante, Jimmy and Michael; cousins, Pam and Jim Scott; and aunt, Nedra Rishel; in-laws, Dante and Mary Cosentino, Mickey and Mike Yarnevich and Joyce and Dan Bodenhamer; and many nephews, nieces and other family members.
