Bill (William) Barrett
April 6, 1925 to December 6, 2020
It is with great sadness, we announce the passing of Bill (William) Barrett on December 6, 2020. Bill was a resident at the SunShine Villa in Tofield for the past 2 years. Prior to moving to the Villa, Bill spent his entire life in Ontario but moved to be closer to his daughter Nancy, son in law Don Kendrick, grandsons Dave (Dana) Kendrick, James (Tina) Kendrick and 4 great grandchildren. Bill was predeceased by his wife Betty in 2016 and daughter Lynn in 1970.
During Bill’s life he had many interests and career choices. Bill served in the navy during WWII earning the nickname “Bulldog” during his boxing matches. Through out his life Bill had many careers but two that stood out for him was being an antique dealer and his twenty-five years of service working for the Federal Government.
Bill was impressed with the western, small town hospitality shown to him during his stay here. Thank you to all.
The family would like to especially thank Dr. Jallad and all the wonderful staff at the Tofield Hospital for their excellent care and compassion.
Also, a heartfelt thank you to Lorna, Bert and all the staff at the SunShine villa for making Bill fell so special and welcomed to his new home.
We would also like to thank the Tofield Legion for always remembering Bill’s service to Canada.
Due to the Pandemic restrictions, a private family memorial service will be held at a later date.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Bill William Barrett 2020..
