Bill, I hope they play Country and Western music in heaven Steve Foldesi

A great friend from Paramax days

Fare seas and safe harbors mate. I'll miss your thoughtful rebellious spirit and insightful ironic sense of humor.

One of the best Pirates I ever sailed with, you will be missed Bill !

Dear Bill, you were one of those shipmates I will never forget. Glad to have sailed, stood watch with you, and to have been a travelling companion on occasion when we served in submarines. I fondly recall an escapade or two as well. Bill, I will miss your great sense of humour. Prayers.

So saddened to hear of Bills passing. My heart goes out to his family. I served with Bill in submarines and worked with him at Lockheed Martin. Rest in peace Bill

I remember the first time I met Bill so many years ago. Sarcastic, sceptical, and so friendly and helpful to everyone he met. A man who's heart was as big as his smile. Deep condolences to the entire family. Rest in peace.

My deepest condolences to Bill's family. I have many fond memories of talks (and the odd escapade) with Bill during out time in submarines. He will be missed.

at sea HMCS PROVIDER - circa 1969 - RN submarine alongside - Bill emerges desperate for loan of a green tie! - he got mine - I send my deepest sympathies to the family

Very sorry to hear of Bill's passing, and my deepest condolences to his family. I knew him from our time in submarines, and had many interesting chats on these new-fangled 'computers' just becoming popular. Always a gentleman, and with a ready smile. Rest in peace, shipmate.

I will miss Bill, my fellow CSE. May his family know how dedicated a submariner he was. Stand easy dear friend.

Bill will be remembered as a no-nonsense, unselfish, highly professional shipmate. We at Subron One shared many laughs with him. He was a great friend.

Sorry to hear of the passing if Bill. I sailed with him on Okanagan and he was onboard Okanagan during the "Grey Rover Crunch" on 28th July 1973. I remember him for his professionalism and humour. Also worked with him at Paramax/Lockheed Martin and Frigate building days. Rest in Peace Bill, you left way to soon.

So sorry to hear of Bill's passing. We served together on submarines. He had a wonderful sense of humor and a great personality. RIP, Bill, you were one of a kind!!

so sorry to learn of the passing of Bill. i served with Bill on submarines for quite a few years. Great guy with a good sense of humor. my condolences to the family. rest in peace sir.

Sincere condolences to the family on the passing of Bill Hawes.

In all the years I knew Bill I never met anyone who didn't like him. He was highly regarded by fellow engineers at Paramax(Lockheed-Martin) and a great guy to be around.

Bill was a very special individual who had a great love and respect for all life. We became an admirer and a friend because of his deep regard for wildlife.

It was a pleasure to know Bill, we worked together in submarines and at Lockheed Martin. He will be missed in both communities.

Thank you for your past service to our country.R.I.P.
