William Salter Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 1, 2021.
(1963 - 2021)

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our husband, son, brother, uncle, papa, and friend. Bill left us suddenly and way too soon on Tuesday, August 24, 2021 at the age of 58 years. Bill suffered a heart attack while working at the retirement home where he had ministered to all the maintenance needs of his beloved residences at Sunrise of Thornhill. He leaves his grief stricken parents, Bill and Dorothy Salter. The light of his life, his loving wife Faye, her children, Micky and Michael and grandchildren, Sammie and Sadie who delighted him. He leaves his heart broken big sisters Jennifer de Winter (Gary) and Amanda Salter Yuh (Wally). He leaves his darlin' niece Emily de Winter Vandyken (Jason); his nephew and buddy, who was the best man at his wedding, Caleb de Winter (Danielle) and his great nephews, Levi, Maverick and Charlie. They will all really miss their Uncle Billy. A Celebration of Life will take place in late September. It was Bill's wish to become one with his beloved French River. In memory of Bill, donations made to your local food bank would be appreciated. Arrangements entrusted to M.W. Becker Funeral Home, Keswick.

My heartfelt condolences to Bill’s family and friends. I had the distinct pleasure to know Bill as a contractor working in his building at Sunrise Thornhill. He was always pleasant and happy to see you, I will truly miss his laughter and the great conversations we would have about anything and everything. He was truly a gentleman. May his soul rest in eternal peace.

Bill was a very unique human being, hard working, extremely dedicated and enthusiastic. He cared about everybody. Bill had an amazing sense of humour. We joked a lot almost on a daily basis. He worked as if sunrise belonged to him. When I showed up at work at 5am he was already there. Many residents that I spoke to were extremely fond of him. At the moment I’m not in Canada but my thoughts are with his wife and family. Personally it is very tough for me to grasp that when I return to work I will no longer see Bill there.
For his wife and family I wish they will know no more sorrow.

My daughter and I are heartbroken to hear about Bill passing. Bill was an incredible human being. I will miss our long talks sharing our life experiences together. My heart goes out to his family and especially wife Faye. You will be missed Bill. I cherished our time working together at Sunrise of Thornhill. May you rest in peace my friend. Eternal be your memory.
