Jo-Ann, Bill, and boys & Geri, Don, and family;
Dorothy and I send you prayers of comfort and support. Bill and I have both been members of the Downtown Rotary club for many years. He did some amazing work for the community; saving the Clock tower and being instrumental in the creation of Fort Edmonton Park, are just two of many good works. He'll be missed by many.

Uncle Bill will be fondly remembered and greatly missed. He was one of the best men I ever knew and a darn good shot. My hero uncle.
Looking forward to seeing him in Heaven!

Bill was a great man, and always fondly remember spending time with he and his family at the Pigeon Lake cabin as neighbours with our Stebner family. Always recall my father (Garth Hampson) speaking to Bill and telling stories of Bill's famous family connection to the Mounties and the early days of the NWMP (RCMP).
Story below...
W. D. Jarvis was one of nine commissioned officers named in 1873 to command the newly founded Force. On the March West, Jarvis was assigned A Division and at Roche Percée left the main column to shepherd 62 men, 55 sick or tired horses and 50 cows with calves to Fort Edmonton, 875 miles away. The route was often rough and deep in mud yet they arrived in 88 days. After wintering at the Hudson Bay Company fort, Jarvis moved his men 16 miles downstream to the junction of the Sturgeon and North Saskatchewan rivers.
Here they established Fort Saskatchewan from which they policed the north. Commissioner French thought Jarvis a good officer but they had their differences over expenses and reports. In 1881, Jarvis, by then a Supeintendent, left the NWMP.
So sorry for your loss. My condolences to the family.
