William "Bill" Michael Reidel

Loving husband of Mike (Hoch). Fabulous father to Michael and Melissa MacLean (Donny). Beloved Poppa to Brandon (Carey), Brad, Mackenzie, Maddie, and Katie. Predeceased by his parents Gerald and Ruth (Dietrich), sister Connie (Dietrich), brother-in-law Paul Dietrich, first wife Diane, and son Timmy.

Bill was a dedicated teacher for the Waterloo Catholic District School Board until his retirement. His dedication extended not only to his students, but extensive projects at both St. David's High School in Waterloo and St. Benedict's High School in Cambridge. Bill was a vital member of St. Anthony Daniel Parish in Kitchener. During his retirement Bill spent much of his time on projects for his church. Bill also spent many hours on leisurely pursuits, his favourite of which was golf. On the first day of classes in September he could be found on the course with a tee time as close to the first bell time as possible. Early in his retirement Bill fulfilled a lifelong dream of going to Southbend to see the Notre Dame "Fighting Irish". He loved the Jays, the Habs, but mostly he loved his family. Bill taught his children and grandchildren many valuable lessons about responsibility, love, respect, and most importantly to his grandchildren, how to count to 24. He was a man larger than life and will be missed by many. May he rest in peace.

A Memorial Mass will be held at St. Anthony Daniel Church, 29 Midland Dr., Kitchener, on Monday, September 26, 2022 at 10:00 a.m., with Father Vivek Trindade officiating. If desired, memorial donations may be made to a charity of your choice. Online condolences at www.westmountfuneralchapel.com
