WILLIAM (BILL) DOUGLAS MULLEN May 18, 1967 - September 13, 2015 My Bill finally let go of cancer's powerful grip. He passed surrounded by love and at peace, finally, no more pain. My Bill was an awesome example of dying with grace and dignity. He was predeceased by his dad Douglas Mullen in 2010. He is survived by his mother Margaret Mullen; his wife Johanne Leclaire and her children, Rhéanne Mault (Kelly), Kristian Dupuis (Kristie); his beloved grandchildren, Mackenzie, Kiera, Kaylie and Liham; his sister Cathy Thomsen (Randy); his niece Christie; nephews, Ryan (Stephanie) and Jeff; his precious great-nephews, Evan and Zac; his best four legged buddy "Tucker"; and an extended family too numerous to mention, as well as a wealth of friends that were all precious to him. The family would like to thank all of the dedicated professionals who looked after our Bill, especially the team at Buhler Cancer Center at the Victoria General Hospital, where he was well taken care of by Claudette, Karen, Deleen and Shawna, Eleanor and Dr. Ogaranko, as well as the numerous specialists that fought so hard in the last two plus years to ensure our Bill had quality of life. We'd also like to thank the dedicated staff at Victoria General Hospital 4th floor for their comforting care prior to transferring him to St. Boniface Palliative Care, he felt like he arrived at the "Hilton" and Natasha, Brenda, Neil, Wes and Paul were fantastic in his care, along with the rest of their team. Our sincerest gratitude for all of the love, support and prayers that surrounded our Bill throughout his valiant battle. In lieu of flowers, please donate in Bill's honour to CancerCare Manitoba, 675 McDermot Ave., Winnipeg, MB R3E 0V9.

Bill was a incredible human being and we miss his humour and quick wit. His love for Jo and the kids was something unique and we are blessed to have been part of his extended family. He fought the good fight and left big shoes to fill and we will keep him close in our hearts forever. He was truly the master of his fate and the captain of his do. Rest in peace, dear Bill - till we meet again. - Posted by: Rheal and Leah Dupuis (Family friends) on: Sep 15, 2015

I remember the day I met Bill like it was yesterday. I was working for Johanne, painting schools. One day Jo let us know that we would be getting some help from the "big boys!". So in strolls Bill dressed in his whites no paint to be seen, a professional! I was in awe watching him glide through the hallways of hastings no ladder just cruising away. That day I knew that I wanted to be as fast and as good as Bill1 In late August as I sat with Bill, we spoke of our first encounter and I told him of my admiration and explained that if not for Jo, we probably would not have met and I would have to thank her. He smiled and said "you know I kissed her that day right?" I didn't know if I should, but I had to! Billiard my friend, you will be greatly missed! Thank you for the great memories and Amazing times! all my love and rest in peace. - Posted by: Brooks Hamilton (Close freind) on: Sep 15, 2015

Johanne my luv, you and Bill had such a great life together. It's hardest to say good-bye to a person like Bill, who was so easy to love. As Mike and Bill often shared Formula 1 racing commentaries, we can't help but mention that Bill finished "his race" with courage and dignity. A rare soul remembered, in our hearts forever. Wrapping our love around you Jo as we extend our heartfelt condolences to you and your family. - Posted by: Lise and Mike (Friends) on: Sep 15, 2015

Bill came into our lives 13 years ago and it was almost instant that I knew he would spend the rest of his life with my mom. We were blessed to have him in our lives although for a short time. Beautiful man who had a beautiful soul. Love you Bill - Posted by: Rheanne (Step Daughter) on: Sep 15, 2015
