Bill was a Club Champion of the Nanaimo Curling Club in its last year of the original building (1970), and he was actively involved in the Nanaimo Yacht Club and the Nanaimo Power Squadron. He enjoyed his boating, fishing, golfing and walks around the city.

He also has four grandchildren, Christie MacDonald, Brooke Jarvie, Alex Huston and Cole Jarvie as well as eight great grandchildren.
