An unassuming man, he loved to play tricks and tell jokes. Bill began his career at Ontario Hydro when he was 29, the same year he became a Dad. Providing a stable home for his family was his number one priority. Bill and Lorraine spent 36 years together, and their family was his pride and joy. He was a kind and faithful man who loved the Lord deeply. In his retirement he enjoyed the simple routines of morning coffee, reading books, doing sudoku puzzles, and spending time with family.
