William (Bill) Weber July 29, 1917 January 9, 2012 It is with great sadness that the old buck as he called himself, passed away at the age of 94 years at Mainprize Manor in Midale, Saskatchewan.

Bill and Florence owned and operated a taxi company in Estevan called City Cab. After they sold the business, Bill later took a position in parts with Bill Harris, The Massey Man from Estevan where he soon became Parts Manager, until he retired.

Vincent. Bill's family would like to sincerely thank all the staff at Mainprize Manor and Dr. Allison Christie for their great care of Dad from 2003 until his passing. A funeral mass will be celebrated on Thursday, January 12, 2012 at 11:00 a.m. in St. John the Baptist R.C. Church, Estevan, by Rev. Peter Nijssen. Interment will take place in Sacred Heart Parish Cemetery, Benson, SK with the family in attendance only. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to a charity of choice in Bill's memory.
