Just found out the very sad news from our 'boss' at CCM. I knew your Bill as a volunteer at Cancer care Manitoba. He was a lovely gentleman, no doubt he will be missed by everyone who knew him - Posted by: Gail cherni (colleague) on: May 22, 2013

So sad to hear of Bill's death! I will always remember him gliding by in his boat at the lake, fishing pole in hand. He was so proud of his children and grandchildren, and also his vegetable gardens. It will not be the same at the cottage without him. - Posted by: Carla Zelmer (Neighbor at the lake) on: May 13, 2013

Darlene and family, we were shocked to hear of Bill's passing. Bill and I first met when we were in grade 7 and were on many sports teams together. There was a group of 6 or 7 of us and we always hung out together when we were young. I moved to B.C. about 40 years ago and still kept in touch thru email jokes, facebook and the occasional phone call. I may have been around when Bill first met you, Darlene. I believe Bill and I went to the German club to try and meet some young ladies and I think he asked you to dance. It was love at first sight for both of you while dancing to the Polish Polka. We will miss Bill as we had many good times together. I know he loved his family very much. Sorry, I could not attend the service. With much sadness, Dennis, Vera and Kerri Wazny - Posted by: dennis wazny (long time friend) on: May 12, 2013
