I was very shocked to hear of Bill's passing 2 years ago. It has taken me until now to post something in his honor. I was a teenager when we met Bill at Dorothy Lake and we (my siblings) with the rest of the gang would meet every weekend and into the summer. We had a great time at the lake. Your smile was infectious and I will never forget your laugh. You will never be forgotten and I cherish the time we had together, forever and always. - Posted by: Melody Richardson (nee Anonychuk) (Friend) on: Jun 25, 2019

To the Rodko & Guyda Families, & especially his Beloved Edie: Both Al & I extend our most sincere and heartfelt condolences on your loss. To just "be" in Bill's company was both a pleasure and a treasure, which will long be remembered for his kindness, compassion and selfless contributions to so many. His multitude of accomplishments will remain a minor tribute to the generational family-ties he respected, honored, and enacted every day, and in every facet of his life and relationships. Rest In Peace, Dear Bill - MLHR . - Posted by: Susan (Topolnoicki) Ivanhoe (Cousin) on: Apr 05, 2017

Hugs to the family and my sincere deepest sympathy and such a great loss. Bill was a great friend I got to know him through summer and winter weekends if it was snowmobiling or hanging out with friends. Bill could put a smile on your face and would light up a room with his presents. I know it's been years since those times but he will terrible missed by many. R.I.P my friend. I will treasure the memories for one day we will all meet again. Your friend Audrey. - Posted by: Audrey Dunlop (Friend) on: Apr 04, 2017
