BILL ARTTO It is with deep sadness we announce the passing of our husband and father Bill Artto on August 21, 2012 at the age of 85 at Seven Oaks Hospital. He leaves behind to cherish his memory his loving wife of 58 years Elsye, his daughter Debbie (Marc), son Bill Jr., and five grand-children. Bill worked at Western Engine for more than 30 years till his retirement. His summers were spent working and fishing at the cottage on Brereton Lake. He was a very kind and generous person who was very loyal to his family and friends. We would like to thank the staff at Seven Oaks Hospital, Dr. Harris at Concordia Hospital and Dr. Brandes at CancerCare for all their care over the past years. Cremation has taken place. In consideration of Bill's wishes, there will be no funeral service. We will however, celebrate his life in our hearts forever. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society. Cropo Funeral Chapel.
