Bill was predeceased by his father Arsen, January 6, 1998. Bill loved his family very much and they truly meant the world to him. From Donna to his daughters, siblings, mom and dad and his beloved grandkids. This was Bill's Lobay's life. He worked at Crompton Grieves for 39 years where he touched the lives of too many people to list. He loved to show off his daughters and grandkids at the company Christmas party every year. The grandkids loved spending time with their Papa. A service celebrating Bill's life will be held on Saturday, October 22, 2011, at 10:00 a.m. in the chapel of Voyage Funeral Home, 220 Hespeler at Henderson Hwy. Viewing one half hour prior to service. Forever loved, forever remembered, Bill did so much yet asked for so little. He was a husband, father, son, uncle, friend, coach and, of course, proud PAPA. However he was known, Bill was a good man. This is Bill Lobay We Miss You We Love You
