Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryWILLIAM (BILL) THOMAS COLMAN
It is with broken hearts that the family of Bill Colman announces his passing September 22, 2025.
Bill is survived by his loving wife of 42 years, Anna-Maria; his sons, Andrew and Paul; their wives, Rachel and Sarah; and his beloved little buddy Oscar. Also mourning his loss is mother-in-law Angelamaria. Bill also had a big family from Vancouver, Alberta, Winnipeg, Denver and Italy.
Bill grew up in St. James and lived there all of his life. He was an entrepreneur, owning a bathroom renovations company and later a plumbing parts distributorship. Finally working at Amery Supply until his retirement.
Bill loved to hunt for the best price and was not bothered if it was taking months to find the best deal. He also loved building and renovating, but his cottage at Grand Beach was the renovation of his lifetime. We will always feel the immense love put into the work he put into for his family. His family was everything to him.
Cremation has taken place as per Bill's wishes. Funeral service will be at 11:00 a.m. on October 11, 2025, at All Saints Church, 521 Broadway. Parking can be found across the street at Canada Life Insurance on Broadway.
You left us too quickly and left an enormous hole in our hearts but we take comfort knowing you are sitting somewhere warm enjoying a nice cold root beer with your loved ones.

Anna-Marie, Andrew & Paul, Thinking of you and saddened to hear of Bill’s Passing. I remember his great smile and the many visits we shared over the years. He so willingly shared his talents and his time to help others, asking nothing in return, which spoke volumes about the man he was! May the many memories of Bill help to comfort you in your new journey. Jen McGregor - Posted by: Jen McGregor (Friend) on: Oct 04, 2025
