I think of my kind neighbour Mr Bissonnette on a regular basis. He lived across the street from my parents from when they moved in 1982 until his death in 2016. I wrote this biography of him to remember his life: https://curriepedia.org/index.php/Bill_Bissonnette#Career

Mr. Bissonnette was a gentle giant and a great father. He was our neighbour on Hill Street from 1972-1974. He blessed me with a lifetime friend and soul sister, his daughter, Nancy. My thoughts are with all of you on the loss of an amazing man. Love, Louise O'Neill

Bill was one of my favorite patients ! He always brightened my day & I always looked forward to his appointments. A man of many fascinating stories & remembrances - he had great insight & a natural inner glow . I treasure my many wooden dog carvings that he blessed me with! When i retired , he was one of those special people that I missed. My condolences to his family & friends.
