Bill took us fishing no matter what the weather. His delight when one of us caught a fish was just as much fun as catching the fish! His kindness will always be remembered and he will be held with love in our hearts forever. - Posted by: Larry & Imy Rempel (Friends) on: Sep 21, 2012

• My memories with Uncle Bill have always been with a smile. Whether it was trying to teach me how to properly jig or going out on the lake on sled in the middle of winter to have a bonfire with tea (with the snow from the lake of course). He always had a huge smile on his face and when he was really thinking hard it was always scratch the jaw and run his hand on his hair as though he was straightening it. My deepest sympathies and condolences to my loving Auntie Marge and cousin Trish. We will all do a jig for Uncle Bill (even though I still can't do it right) - Posted by: Joanna Sallows (niece) on: Aug 27, 2012
