On his terms, Bill passed away peacefully at home with his beloved wife Judy (nee Bevan) and girls by his side, so loved by Shelley Elliott (Mike Ryan), Stacie Sawyer (Jeff) and Stephanie (Adam Sherwin). He was the biggest fan and most loving Grampy of Mikayla, Sydney, Jordyn, Emily and Ethan. Loved brother of Mary Elliott, Laura Chase (Jim), Don (Kelly) and John (deceased). Pre-deceased by his parents Borden and Evelyn. Forever remembered by his brothers-in-law John Bevan (Mary), Jaye Bevan (Sandy), sisters-in-law Jan Bradford (Steve) and Joy Doncaster (Bob). Much loved and idolized uncle of the Elliott, Fulford and Bevan families. So badly missed by his loyal companion “Jack”. Bill, Cowboy, Dad, Grampy …….to know him was to love him!! You could always find Bill at a ball diamond, arena or where ever someone needed help, personally or a sports team, he raised monies through his famous Euchre Tournaments, raffles, 50/50’s, hockey and ball pools, he did it all. He had to be the best 50/50 ticket seller ever. His pride and joy was his involvement with sports, whether it was the Coldsprings Cats, Cobourg Cougars, Oshawa Hilliers, hockey, Legion darts and Golf. He made friends from coast to coast, Cuba and Myrtle Beach. He will always be remembered by his Malone group, his Turkey Bowl group and his daily coffee group as a loyal and dependable friend. He would always put a smile on his customer’s faces when they heard the whistling and humming as he happily cleaned their windows. Thank you isn’t enough for the love and appreciation we have for our PSW’s, St. Elizabeth nurses, Lakeridge hospital and Northumberland Hills Hospital nursing staffs. A very special heartfelt thank you to our doctor and friend Francisco Mule, Susan Jenereaul, Tracy Bagshaw and our own 4th daughter and special nurse CaraLea Calvert for all their kindness. I am sure Bill is happily organizing a tournament of some kind, for “Anybody in the House” and it will be a “Barn Burner”. To know him was to love him young or old. You had a “Friend for Life”. Bill loved his family, friends and community. A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to Northumberland Hills Hospital Palliative Care or Cobourg Sports Hall of Fame (www.cdshf.ca).
A Celebration of Life will be held Saturday October 16th at Kelly’s Homelike Inn from 1 – 4pm.
“Love You Guys”
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of William Cowboy Borden Alexander
