On December 1st, 2012, Bill passed away peacefully at the Kamloops Hospice House.

Bill was born in Regina in September 1949.

Bill will be sadly missed by his wife Georgie; sons Sean, Regina and Kim, Regina; stepson Kirk (Teresa), Alberta; his brothers Gordon, Regina, Mark and Brent. He also leaves behind grandchildren.

Bill retired from Highland Valley Copper in November 2011, where he worked for 35 years.

Bill enjoyed fishing and doing maintenance for a local bar where he would often go to meet some of his many friends. Another of his favorite pastimes, was the Meat Draw on Saturday afternoons.

There will be no Funeral Service by request, but the family would like to invite his friends to a Celebration of Bill's life on Saturday, December 8th, 2012 at 1:00 p.m. at the Army & Navy Vets on Tranquille Road on the river.

Very special thanks from the family to Dr. Dong and also to the wonderful staff at the Kamloops Hospice.

The family would also like to thank all Bill's wonderful friends and our immediate families for all their support and compassion at this sad time.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Hospice would be appreciated.
