Billy and his first wife, Dee Dee, welcomed their son, Billy Mays III, in August 1986.
He was raised with his mother, Dee Dee, in Pittsburgh, and spent summers with his father in Florida. While Billy was based in the South, he often traveled for work and would see his son during stops in Pennsylvania, Billy III recalled to PEOPLE.
