Death notice for the town of: Orillia, Province: Ontario
I was very sad to hear of the passing of Bill RIP, My deepest condolences to Sandy, Ryan, Cody and the extended family. My fondest memories of growing up with Bill are from St Joseph’s school all the way through to grade 13 at Neil McNeil. Bill had a fantastic sense of humor and it was wonderful fun to be in his company. He was always kind and thoughtful to his friends. He truly was a ‘Jolly Gentle Giant’. Bill, will forever remain in my memories of school. May his spirit be at peace.
I knew Bill as my boss at IGI at what was my first job in Canada. He was one of the most professional people I’ve had the pleasure of working with, and beyond that he was wonderful human being who was always approachable and ready to lend a helping hand. I’m sad to hear of his premature departure and pray that he may rest in peace.
