Not sure what to say?

So heartwarming to read all the amazing memories of my distant cousin. I wish I had lived closer to have known him better. His mom, was one of my favourite aunts. May the precious time that his path crossed yours always be remembered as happy moments.

It was a total shock when I heard of Bill's passing. I lived next door to him since a child and over the years we all played together, road our bikes around and went to school together. I attended FWCI with Bill for 5 years walking to and from school in the morning at lunch and afternoon and we always had something to talk about. You couldn't ask for a better friend or neighbours. Often we would go to each others house on weekends and do something together or we'd walk downtown to go to the...

We will remember Bill fondly and miss his chats when we met him and Phoebe walking on Nelson Road. It was with sadness and shock that we learned of his passing. David and Brenda

Bill was a neighbour on Lake Superior. Always enjoyed the chats when we ran into him and Phoebe on the road walking or on his quad. A gentle soul.... We were shocked to hear of his passing.

Our condolences to Bill's family and friends. We are neighbors of his and everyday we would see Bill walking his dog Phoebe by our house and had a few chats and laughs over the years. Really nice man who will be missed and remembered.

I am saddened to hear of the loss of my friend and coworker. Bill was always kind and more than willing to help no matter what the task. I will certainly miss our "card challenge" which I always looked forward to. I will miss our catch up times. My heart breaks for Phoebe - your little Angel. We will meet again my friend and we will do some catching up again.

I was shocked and saddened when I saw Mr. Bill's obituary. I have never worked with a Head Custodian who was so very proud to be a FWCI Blue Bear. Bill was my right hand man ensuring that FWCI "the building" was safe and secure. His message to me in his last Christmas card which I received in November was "There was always peace at FWCI". As a former FWCI principal I can proudly say that he was a kind, caring, thoughtful man who was loved by students and staff. He demonstrated all of...

Bill was such a kind soul, a great neighbour at camp always keeping an eye on things when someone was away. Will miss the chats on the beach and history lessons he taught. He will be missed. Condolences from all of the McCallum, Graham, Robitaille and Powell families.

Bill was my neighbour. Always happy to chat, frequently tidying the neighborhood and had Phoebe at his side. Rest in peace my friend. My most sincere condolences to his loved ones.
