Billy and Me: 65 Years of Love and Adventure

Billy and Me: 65 Years of Love and Adventure is a valentine to an extraordinary marriage and partnership between Tootsie Veprin, the book’s author, and her husband, Billy. Tootsie takes her reader back to the days of vaudeville in San Francisco, where she and Billy first met when she was four and he was nine.

They were reunited years later and after a whirlwind courtship set out together building businesses in Vallejo, California; Hawaii; Guam; San Francisco; Hong Kong; and the San Fernando Valley. Whatever they did, they did together, supporting one another to achieve success. Their devotion to one another extended to their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, as well as legions of friends who entered their warm and charmed circle. Incorporating pages from Billy’s unfinished memoir, Billy and Me is the final collaboration of an enviable marriage.
