Have only just heard about Bill's passing. We were blessed to know Bill from our time as part of South Canterbury Presbytery when we were in our first parish (Fairlie) as newly ordained ministers. His faith and example of Christian living was a wonderful witness to all who knew him. Prayers and blessings always.
Shalom.

Bill was like an older brother influence for me. In our teenage years we formed our life values and aspirations and learned from each other. Thankyou Bill!

Dear Jan and family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Bill was a good friend and faithful man. I am sure he will be greeted with `well done good and faithful man´. For you and your family take heart at this time that Jesus said `blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted´. May you find peace at this time.
May God continue to bless and comfort you.
Barney and Marion Clayton.
