1940 - 2019
William George McKenzie (Bill) Slater died
peacefully February 2, 2019, at the North
Shore Hospice. He is survived by his wife of
50 years, Carol; his sons David (Jessica),
Jamie, Brad (Kate), and Scott (Jessica); as
well as three grandchildren (Julia, Harvest,
and Sawyer) and one grandchild on the way.
Bill earned success in sport as an Olympic
swimmer and in business with the firm
Phillips, Hager and North, but what mattered
most to him was his family. He adored
vacations to Boucherie Beach Resort and
many family weekends in Whistler. Bill always
expressed immense gratitude for his
wonderful friends and loving family; we will
cherish memories of him in our hearts for as
long as we live. At his request, a celebration of
life will not be held. Bill appreciated, as did his
family, the support from the caring staff of
the North Shore Hospice.
