With heavy hearts, we remember and honor a remarkable man whose love, strength and wisdom shaped generations. 

He was a loving partner, a devoted father, a cherished grandfather, and a proud great-grandfather.

He leaves behind his beloved partner, Marie José Aubertin, his loving children Frank (Christina), John Paul (Corinne), Eileen (Marc) and Darlene (Gary);  his grandchildren Morgan (Ashley), Serena (Pat), Cindy (Fred), Alannah (Marc-André), Mike, and Pat (Tina);  and all his great-grandchildren .

He is also survived by his brothers and sisters, brothers-in-law and sister-in-law, nephews and nieces, and many friends.

He will be remembered for his unwavering love for his family and generous spirit. His memory will live on in the hearts of all who were fortunate to know him. 

Following his wishes, there will be no funeral ceremony.  

An announcement will be made for a celebration of life to be held at a later date.

Rest in peace, Bill, knowing that you were deeply loved and will never be forgotten.
