Bill dedicated much of his career to Community Mental Health work in Brandon and Melita, Manitoba. In 2013, Bill and his wife, Lois, moved to Alberta to be closer to their sons, and their families. In Melita, Bill was an active community volunteer, contributing his time and efforts as a member of the Kinsmen Club and the K-40’s. Later, in Russell, he continued his community service as a member of the Lion’s Club. Bill had a passion for fishing, gardening, golfing, and traveling the world with Lois.

We knew Bill and Lois in the 1970’s. Wonderful family and they took care of our oldest son Billy when I had to go back to work. So sorry we did not keep in touch. Condolences to the family and RIP Bill - Posted by: Carole Forbister Ezzard (Friend from the past) on: Sep 21, 2024

I followed in Bill's footsteps as community mental health worker in Melita. Bill trained me and mentored me as I attempted to fill some pretty “big shoes”. His colleagues, friends and clients thought the world of him as did I. Deepest condolences to his family. In sympathy Janis Slack - Posted by: Janis Slack (Collegue) on: Sep 19, 2024

I trained with Bill ( Psychiatric Nursing ) in 1960 in Brandon...Bill was a very kind, soft-spoken and very well liked man whom I always considered as my good friend and confidant. He will surely be missed by many. Please accept my condolences to his family. Rest well Bill. Brian. - Posted by: Brian Bunch (Friend ( many moons ago )) on: Sep 17, 2024
