Bill was an avid sportsman who as a young man was known as one of Manitobas top sprinters. He also enjoyed hunting, golfing and curling. Bill also had a tremendous love for animals. It was curling that Bill with his twin brother George excelled. Together they won many trophies and were considered one of Manitobas top teams. In 1948 they reached their big goal by representing Manitoba in "The Brier", Canadas National Championship. For many years Bill and brother George owned and operated Sangster Wagon and Body Works. In his later years, Bill worked as an estimator for MPIC. Left to cherish Bills memory are his family, numerous nephews, nieces and friends. He was a kind, gentle, generous lovable soul.
