Peacefully in his ninety-fourth year at Queensway Carleton Hospital after a life well-lived and many contented years with the caring staff at Forest Hill Retirement Home. Beloved husband of the late Eileen (Makinson). Dearly beloved father of Blair and Lenore. Cherished Grandfather of Melissa and treasured father-in-law of Patrick. Dear big brother to sisters Mary and Martha and predeceased by siblings Ritchie, John and Nancy, whom he loved dearly. He will be fondly remembered by many nieces, nephews and lifelong friends. A special thank-you to his personal caregiver, Colleen Clogg, for her dedication and compassion.
After graduating from U of T in aeronautical engineering and returning for his MSc., William spent the early part of his career as meteorologist at the Met Office in Goose Bay, Labrador. Following short stints in Ottawa and Belleville, Bill spent four years as Wing Commander of the Air Force Base in Metz, France. He travelled widely with his family during this time, taking advantage of rare opportunities to visit Paris, Germany, Italy, Spain, Austria and Switzerland.
Upon returning to Canada, the family spent a year in Trenton before returning to Ottawa, Bill’s home town. Following retirement, he was pleased to find more time to indulge in his hobbies of watch-making, pottery and his lifelong love of downhill skiing as well as in his passions for bridge and antique auctions, that he shared with his wife Eileen.
William was rarely idle and instilled much of his love of learning and curiosity about “things” in his son and daughter. His sense of humor and positive outlook on life made him great company. Bill spent many wonderful summers showing family and friends a good time while enjoying the beautiful surroundings at his beloved cottage on Papineau Lake before his unfortunate illness made it necessary to give up this carefree lifestyle.
Friends may visit on Monday, March 11, 2013 from 1 pm to 2 pm at the Garden Chapel of Tubman Funeral Homes, 3440 Richmond Road (between Baseline and Bayshore) followed by a Memorial Service in the chapel at 2 pm. Reception to follow in the Maple Terrace Room of the funeral home. Those wishing to make a donation in memory of William may do so to the Alzheimer’s Society of Canada.
