Uncle Bill was like another "Dad" to us....when we moved to Winnipeg, in 1981, he promptly took us under his wing, and drove us around the city looking for apartments....not knowing the city at all, he kept us in the area of town near our Burgess and Rasmussen relatives, for which we were truly thankful! Every Sunday, we were invited to family dinners between the aunts, uncles, and cousins! He loved a good steak, a good burger, and a cold beer, and all flowed plentifully at his home. He was so proud of all his kids, and grandchildren, and he often laughed until he cried when telling stories about them. He was generous in every way.....kind and tender-hearted. We love him, and are so thankful he was part of our lives. I'm sure when he got to the gates of heaven, Jesus welcomed him with these words, "Well done, good and faithful servant." RIP, Uncle Bill. - Posted by: Dan and Shareen MacKay (Nephew and niece) on: Oct 21, 2014
