It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Dad after an almost 4 year battle with Alzheimer’s. Bill was the loving husband of the late Veronica for 52 years. Devoted Dad to Michelle (Australia), Anton and Van (Vietnam), Leeza, and Amanda and Blair, and Katrina adored Grandad to Stevie, Patsy, Luke, and Zain (Australia); Cameron; Mikayla, and his 8 great grandchildren. Bill was the loved brother to his 10 younger siblings, adored uncle, cousin, and respected friend to many.
