Bill – you were a huge part of our fun times together and more so our in depth discussion times. We solved the problems of the world every week!
There’s a stairway to heaven and a highway to hell – you never went too fast and didn’t like highways – hope Ronnie has a light on for you at the top of the stairway – Champion!!!

You will be missed Uncle Bill. I am lucky enough to have many memories from being babysat with a packet of Colvan Chips, to dropping in at the beach house and “losing” the day. You never liked fishing, but came on the trips just to be part of a family event, and created “legends” in the process. It has been a real pleasure to spend time with you Uncle Bill, and I know how happy you were down on the island with your loving wife Janice and your Day Club. My thoughts are with Janice, we were all lucky to have known Uncle Bill.

Rest in peace Bill.
