WILLIAM STEPHEN
January 12, 1938 - June 10, 2019
Bill went to high school in Campion College in Regina before following his brother Ian to the University of Alberta, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Commerce.
In 1962 Bill married Lorraine and they spent the last 57 years raising a family, travelling and enjoying their grandchildren and great-grandchild.
Bill spent almost 30 years working in marketing at Shell Canada, where he made many lifelong friends and memories.
Following retirement, Bill joined Niakwa Country Club where he made many great friends as part of the Commodores over the course of the next 27 years.
When people think of Bill the first and most enduring quality was his sense of humour. He entertained friends and family his whole life, creating lasting memories for all he came across.
Bill is survived by his wife Lorraine; daughter Joanne Krueger (Eric); sons, Scott (Janette), Todd (Monique) and Jeff (Susan); grandchildren, Brittany, Holly (Tyler), Ben, Carly, Will, Monica, Derek, Claire, Lachlan, Ramsey, and great-grandchild Zane.
Bill was predeceased by his brother Ian.
Funeral Mass will be held on Friday, June 14, 2019 at 11:00 a.m. at St. Bernadette Parish, 820 Cottonwood Road.
Donations, in lieu of flowers, may be made in Bill's memory to the I.H. Asper Institute Development Fund.

We are thinking of you. We remember your Dad's great sense of humour when he visited us at Slocums. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. With our sincere sympathy, Dave and Sherrie - Posted by: Dave and Sherrie (Friends) on: Jun 13, 2019
