William Alexander Robertson passed away peacefully at the Rocky View Hospital, Calgary, Alberta on Monday, August 26, 2019 at the age of 77 years.
Bill was born and raised in Calgary Alberta. A quiet shy man who when he was younger loved to fish with his grandpa. He would keenly watch sports on TV and discuss the outcome of the game. He may have gambled a bit at the horse races I had been told. He worked for Sureline Foam Products for several years prior to retiring due to ill health. Bill had lived his own home for 48 years before becoming a resident of Bow View Manor in March 2019. He enjoyed the daily chats with his nurses and care givers. Bill could be seen chasing the candy trolley down the hall in his wheelchair and loved the ice cream and hotdog days. Although he was not a traveller growing up he loved to see his cousins when they came to visit or in later years keep in contact by email and phone.
He is survived by his sister Evelyn (Don) Rondeau and her family; Barry & Pam, Derlyne & Jeff, Brian & Rebecca, Trevor & Sue, Jason & several great nieces and nephews as well as several cousins across Canada; his brother Allan Mall, brother in law Don Smoke and nephew Kris (Tara) Smoke and their family. He was predeceased by his parents and younger sister Linda Smoke.
Our family would like to thank the staff at Bow View Manor-Crowfoot area for the excellent care Bill received while in their care.
A Graveside Service will be held at Queen’s Park Cemetery, 3219 4 St NW, Calgary, on Friday, September 6, 2019 at 3:30 p.m
