William « Bill » Yeomans
1929-2020
It is with deep sadness that we must
announce the passing of William (Bill)
Yeomans, age 91, of Sackville, NB. Bill passed away
peacefully at the Drew Nursing Home in Sackville New Brunswick on
November 23, 2020.
Born in Hamilton Ontario, he was the
oldest son of the late Frederick and Doris (Sargeant) Yeomans.
Brought up in Saint John, NB, he was
married there and eventually moved to Moncton, Fredericton, Edmonton,
and finally to Sackville. He was a member of St.
Paul’s Anglican Church, Sackville, NB.
Bill was predeceased by his wife of 65
years, Bernice (Hubley) Yeomans; oldest son Douglas (Marilyn) Yeomans;
and brother John (Lois) Yeomans. He is survived by his brother Frank
(Sharron) Yeomans; four children: Greg (Jacqueline) Yeomans, Jane
(Manuel Cerrato) Yeomans, Faye (Leslie) Hicks, and Fred (Lori)
Yeomans; 9 grandchildren, and 2 great grandchildren.
Bill was fortunate to have a job he
loved, working with the very best of friends, and especially enjoyed
their trips together to Nassau, Paradise Island, Barbados, Bermuda,
Las Vegas and Atlantic City. He also enjoyed golfing and the many
friends he met at the Riverside, Moncton, Mactaquac, Sherwood Park,
and Sackville golf courses, and he was still playing the occasional
round at the age of 90. Over his life, Bill enjoyed the fellowship of
many organizations including the United Commercial Travelers, Moncton
Kinsmen Club, and the Moncton Elks Club. He was especially honoured to
be a life member of the Nummies Club in Moncton.
Arrangements have been entrusted to
Jones Funeral Home, 70 Bridge Street,
Sackville, NB (506-364-1300). A memorial service will be arranged at a
later time when family and friends can attend.
