Not sure what to say?

Just seen this. So sorry about his passing. He was a great man. I had the pleasure of caring for him a few years ago. I was his caregiver.

Condolences to the Dafoe family. A friend from the past.

On behalf of my mother, Kathryn Newton (nee Jones), and our entire family,
I am extending our deepest condolences. Mom grew up in Wautoma and knew Billy his entire life. He was a very dear friend to her.

Our condolences to the family. A long and wonderful life!

My condolences to the family members. All who knew the Doctor; have lost a very special man.

Our condolences go out to the Dafoe family. Dr. Dafoe was a great man and a wonderful doctor. When I was a little boy, I remember him staying by my bedside at my parents' home, and I credit him with saving my life. He was a gentle soul & wise in many ways. May he rest in peace.

My thoughts and prayers are with your whole family. I have so many wonderful memories of time with your family, Nancy. I remember your dad and his endearing "toilet paper dance!" I remember the importance of winding the grandfather clock. Your parents and your entire family will always have a special place in my heart. There was always so much love in your home! Your Mom and Dad made that happen! Bless you all.
