William HERMAN Obituary
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Bill on July 25, 2024, at Berkley Care Centre. He is survived by Anne, his wife of 57 years; son Greg (Makiko) in Japan; son Jeff (Shannon) in N.Van; three grandchildren, Avery, Quinn and Tate; two sisters, Florence in ON and Jeanette in NS; three nephews, Bradley, Barry, Ian and one niece, Erin.
Bill was born in Hudson Bay Junction, Saskatchewan. At an early age, his family moved to Kitchener, ON, where he graduated from KCI Collegiate & Lougheed Business College. Bill was proud of his Ukrainian heritage and was an accomplished Ukrainian dancer in his youth. He moved to Vancouver in 1962, where he began work as an Insurance Broker, achieved his AIIC and FIIC and retired at age 60. He met Anne in 1963, and they married in 1967. Bill and Anne joined the North Shore Winter Club in the 1960s, where he continued playing hockey and tennis for many years. He coached NSWC Minor Hockey teams while his two sons played hockey, enjoyed jogging and curling, and was a member of the Mt. Seymour Ski Patrol during his younger years. In the 1990s, Bill began international travel with Anne to visit his son Greg in Japan and his son Jeff in Germany. He continued his love of travel and cruising during his retirement years. A great getaway for many years was the Kelowna condo on the Lake.
A private remembrance will be held.
