I will miss you Uncle Bill. I will always remember when you took my sister Wendy, brother Evan, and myself on a road trip to Niagara Falls. Sleeping in the cab of your truck, going to the wax musems, and getting scared! We were all young kids and had a blast. I bet you were probably thinking, what the hell did I do! LOL Also will cherish the family bbqs you and Aunty Bev hosted. Always fun with alot of the family there. Rest in peace Uncle. I just wanted to mention that Uncle Bill did have 3 brothers also. Wayne and Al who have passed, and Uncle Gerry who is still with us mourning his passing. - Posted by: Shelley Koben (niece) on: Sep 27, 2026
