Bill spent many happy years with his close friend Eldeen and her children, Kim (Warren), Jeff (Jody) all of Calgary, Pam (Tyson) of High River and all their children, Amanda, Aaron, Nathaniel, Anna, Trina, Kaden and Logan.
Bill was a loving husband, father, grandfather and friend to all. He worked hard his entire adult life in several different occupations including but not limited to newspapers, meat processing and restaurants. He was a very hardworking, self-employed man for many years, always ready to lend a helping hand if needed. In his early years, Bill and his teammates qualified to be the youngest curlers to play in the Brier, a very rare accomplishment at the time. Bill loved watching and playing golf, gardening, cooking, reading, history, and was an avid Calgary Flames and Montreal Expos fan. The last few years of his life he enjoyed spending the winters in Phoenix Arizona, golfing, staying warm, and making new friends.
A very special thank you to the South Calgary Health Campus, for their loving care and support during Bill’s last days. Thank you to Foster’s Garden Chapel for their kind assistance with all of the arrangements.
