In Loving Memory of William Elmer (Bill) Obee
Bill Obee passed away on Saturday, April 15, 2023, one day short of his 80th birthday, with his children by his side. Those who knew Bill recognized he was a great Dad, Granddad, friend, Rotarian, and lover of all things. He lived on Twelve Mile Lake in Carnarvon, after moving from Minden, Unionville, Brantford, and Port Credit to name a few, but there was nowhere on Earth that Bill loved more than his lakefront home, where he and Penny spent many happy years.
Bill married Penny in 1968, after a whirlwind courtship lasting just a few months. They were so proud of their three children, Janna (Kevin), Hunter (Alex), and Meaghan (Robert), as well as 7 wonderful grandchildren, Zachary, Quinn, Aidan, Riley, Kyla, Logan, and Sophie.
Bill’s accomplishments were many, but the things he was most proud of were being a University of Waterloo Engineering graduate, nearly 50 years as a member of Rotary International, including years involved with the Youth Exchange Program, Group Study exchanges, and numerous Paul Harris Fellows, volunteer board member at HCDC, Staanworth, Minden Community Food Center, and multiple years on Minden Town Council.
Bill and Penny loved to travel and shared many adventures with their family and friends. Highlights include Mexico, Jamaica, the Caribbean, and Florida with family, Rotary excursions to Cambodia, Aruba, Jamaica, and South Africa, biking in Croatia, Italy, and France, plus fun with friends in Australia, New Zealand, Europe, the Caribbean, and throughout our beautiful Canada.
Friends are invited to join the family to celebrate Bill’s life at the Red Umbrella Inn, 1075 Red Umbrella Road, Minden on Saturday, April 29, 2023 at 1pm. We’ll exchange stories and refreshments from 1-3pm, with a few words from family and close friends 3-4pm. Donations may be made to the Penny and Bill Obee Memorial Scholarship at hhssscholarship@gmail.com, or the Minden Community Food Centre and also can be arranged through the Gordon A. Monk Funeral Home Ltd., P.O. Box 427, Minden, Ontario K0M 2K0.
