Bill was truly one-of-a-kind. He always came in with a smile and a story, and he left us with a chuckle (and a candy for himself). He had a unique way of reminding us to not sweat the small stuff. Our village lost a great leader and I will miss him immensely. Hugs to you all.

Darlene & family so sorry to hear about Bill's passing. Bill's smile was contagious & he was a kind thoughtful man. I always enjoyed visiting him & you.

Darlene and family: As you remember I first met Bill at the Cooperators. I had a tremendous amount of respect for Bill. I will remember Bill most for his infectious laugh and how he carried himself. He was a fine person! It had been a few years since last seeing him in the street in Regina, you were still residing in Regina at that time. I was working at Crown Life and as always he had positive and encouraging words for me. My sincere condolences to you Darlene and your family. Bonnie Folk (Hall) Deer Valley SK

Darlene and family, please accept my deepest sympathy I will miss Bill every day. He was not only a great person to work with, but a great friend and mentor.

Darlene and Family: My heartfelt sympathy goes out to all of you. Bill was a great guy and was loved and respected by all who knew him. He was very community minded and his contributions will always be remembered! Take Care!

We are so sorry for your loss Darlene. Our thoughts are with you and your family. ♥

We were very sad to hear of Bill's passing, Darlene. Brian & I will truly miss his friendship, even though we didn't see you guys often. As you know I had the truly great privilege of working for Bill at The Co-operators. We had many fond & hilarious memories from those years. I will forever cherish his leadership and guidance, his good humour, his gentle character, and warm smile. Our most heartfelt condolences to you Darlene, and your family. Take care. Love, Edna & Brian

Our deepest sympathy to you Darlene and your family. Although Ruth & I only knew Bill for a few years he was a great friend and we will miss him dearly.

We were so sorry to read of Bill's passing in today's paper, Darlene. Our sincere condolences to you and your family. Ron and Laraine Clayton Buena Vista

My condolences to all family and friends who were close to Bill and will sorely miss him. As boys, Bill and I played together as we lived a few houses apart. Shinny on the street in winter and football and baseball on vacant lots in the neighbourhood in summer. Bill was a great person who I fell out of touch with but the memories of our childhood together remains strong. Goodbye dear friend.

We are so sorry for your loss Darlene. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Our sincerest sympathy Darlene to you and your family. You were both such great neighbours to Aunt Marion and Uncle Wes and because of them we got to know you both. Bill was respected by all who knew him and I know he will be greatly missed.
