Our appreciation to Bills home care nurses Cathy and Sharon and also to Sandy who helped us in many ways. To Raul who cared for Bill for over two years with respect and sensitivity, we all thank you.

He left us with many wonderful memories that we will cherish. Honouring Bills wishes, no service will be held. Cremation has taken place. In lieu of flowers, a donation to the charity of your choice is appreciated. Good night! which put the candle out? A jealous zephyr, not a doubt. Ah! friend, you little knew How long at that celestial wick The angels laboured diligent; Extinguished, now, for you! It might have been the lighthouse spark Some sailor, rowing in the dark, Had importuned to see! It might have been the waning lamp That lit the drummer from the camp To purer reveille! - Emily Dickinson Arrangements entrusted to: GLEN EDEN FUNERAL HOME 4477 MAIN STREET 338-7111
