Billie Jo Breit, age 79, of Pfeifer, Kansas, left this earth and peacefully entered heaven’s gate on October 26, 2022. She was born on June 4, 1943, in Russell, Kansas, to Donald and Esther (Peterson) Sellens.

Billie was a homemaker for many years before getting into the workforce. She was an incredible chef and baker. Family and holiday dinners were always delicious and hold many special memories. She made every family gathering special.
She was also an amazing seamstress. She could make something out of nothing. She loved to sew, making anything from clothes to quilts and bridal dresses. She always worked hard, no matter what she was doing. She always made sure that her family was taken care of. Not a day passed when we ever doubted the love she had for her family.
Billie is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Brett and Babe Breit of Hays. Her daughter and son-in-law, Aimee and Roger Konrade of Gorham, Pete and Billie wished for grandchildren and were blessed with a grandson, Dayne Breit of Hays, who was their pride and joy.
