I was 12 years old and Bill loved golf like I did, we would place 9 holes at a par 3 every week, thought me edict on the golf course then when I was good enough off to Pine Ridge where he was a member. Wow was I excited Pine Ridge awesome. I remember I beat Bill in one hole and I thought I was the best, it was awesome to have a friend and brother that was 56 years older then me, I loved that man.

Donna and Patty - sincere condolences to both of you, and your family. Losing both your parents so close together means that this was meant to be. Your parents were such fine folks to be around when family got together, always enjoying good, lively conversations. This family circle has grown so much smaller, but the wonderful memories will always be a part of us. With love - - Posted by: Betty Yascheshyn (Niece by marriage) on: Aug 29, 2018

Tricia, I am so sorry to hear about the recent loss of both your mother and father. When I think of both of them, I think of kindness, love and sincerity. I guess that is why they were such a sweet couple. It was my privilege to meet your mother almost 50 years ago, we found ourselves in the same congregation in Winnipeg. What a delight to be there, to see your father dedicate his life to Jehovah and remain faithful until the end. While I spoke about it to Warren, as recent as a few weeks ago, I truly regret I didn’t see them after they moved to Peterborough. They passed, faithful, knowing that one day they will be welcomed back to a peaceful new world, Ps 37:10-11. I want to extend my sincere sympathy to you, Howard and all your family. I cannot say, I know ‘your’ pain, I do know it is painful for all of you. It is my hope the beautiful memories you shared with your mother and father, will bring you some comfort, until the day arrives, when you will embrace them again, now enjoying good health and never have to part. Tears of sadness today, tears of joy on the horizon. Tricia, I fondly recall your surprise visit to my congregation in London a few years ago. Our visit ended far too quickly. I would love another surprise visit. I will be thinking of you on Saturday. I regret we cannot be with you, we have a big week-end with the family. - Posted by: Pat Green-Jones (Friend) on: Aug 29, 2018

Our sincerest condolences in the loss of such a wonderful brother. I (Rob) remember many good times with Bill at our meetings and also at Pine Ridge golf course. He taught me many things of the finer points of golf. Most importantly, I remember his tremendous humility. Always friendly, ready to talk....very easy to get along with. Thankfully, his "nap" will be short. I'm so sorry of your mother, Helen's, passing too. She too will have a short "nap". May you be comforted of the many happy memories and by each other. In the meantime, look forward to many more to be made very soon in a paradise earth. Jehovah be with you all. - Posted by: Rob and Heather McLaughlin (Friends) on: Aug 29, 2018
