William Paterson Obituary

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of William (Bill) Paterson on March 23, 2023 at the age of 81.
William was loved dearly by his late wife, Bronwen. He is lovingly remembered by his children Wyeth and Rob, his grandson Bryn and his son in law Michael.
William grew up in Toronto and made homes in King City, Burlington, Dundas and Waterford. His fondest memories were created at the family cottage on Kushog Lake and he later found a love of Puerto Morelos, Mexico.
He had a long and dedicated career as an accountant and property manager and was respected by everyone he interacted with.
His greatest accomplishment was his family and friends whom he loved deeply and gave selflessly to all. He will be remembered for his belly laughs, quick wit and his ability to remember tidbits of useless information.
A private interment will be held at Pine Hills Cemetery. Friends and family are welcome to join at a celebration of his life at 4 Old Main Street, Waterford on April 8 from 1-4 pm.

Bill was an amazing man. He had charisma, he had wit and he was so smart. His kindness and heart live on in Wy, Rob, Bryn and Mike. I will always remember his smile and appreciate how welcoming he always was.
I feel lucky to have known him. My love to you all. The world lost a great man. I hope he's reunited with Bronwen.

Wyeth, Mike, Rob and Bryn - so sorry for your loss. We enjoyed many cottage visits with your family and Bill was always so friendly and welcoming.

I got to know Bill through my friendship with Bronwen.
I visited their cottage and home and enjoyed their company. Bill always had interesting stories to tell. When I lived close to them in Dundas I remember Bill coming with Bronwen to help me with some maintenance in my home. Bill was always gracious and offered great advice. My sincere condolences to the family. .
