Dear Tim and family,
So sorry to hear of your loss.
My condolences and sympathy to the whole family.
Saddened to hear of your dad’s passing. Many, many good memories I hold of him and the whole family – skiing the rockies, alberta steaks, horse talk (they eat money), and so much more. A fortunate life – a mentor for the next generation of dads and grand-dads.
Tim, Michele and family,
We are so sorry to hear of your dads passing Tim. We hope the memories you have will help you all get through this difficult time.
Our condolences.
I am sorry to learn about Bill’s passing. What a wonderful man. He was a wonderful friend. I have some great memories of Bill.
Tim and family, sorry to hear about the passing of your dad. He was a kind and friendly man, always happy and caring for his patients. His obituary was a perfect description of him. I always enjoyed chatting with him whether while at your clinic or occasionally at the Lake Bonavista Safeway.
My condolences.
Tim and family,
I was saddened to hear of Bill’s passing. He was such a gentle and compassionate man.
My condolences,
Carla
Chito and I were saddened to hear of Bill’s passing – an incredible man that made a huge impact to our world with his wonderful smile, compassion and generous spirit. Please accept our condolences at this time, thinking of you all,
Love Chito, Laurie and Jessye
My daughter and I were saddened to learn about the passing of such a kind, caring man. Growing up in Lake Bonavista on the same street together my brother Scott became good friends with Tim. Bill was our dentist for over 40 years and we have the perfect smiles to prove it. Bill had a great sense of humour and was a caring and compassionate human being. Tim has done a great job at the clinic and it’s nice to see the family legacy live on. Our hearts, condolences and warm wishes are with you.
Karen Young and Ashleigh Gerlitz
Our family, and over time, extended family have been clients of Tim and Bill for 30 years and quickly felt very close to the family. Enjoying when Tim had all his babies and when Bill would tell stories of his activities. Just before I got married for the second time, I had to visit Bill for a filling. He put in a gold filling as a wedding present and did not charge me. He was so cute about it. During any appointments, inquiry was always made about Bill and we are all so sad about his passing.
So sorry to read of Bill’s death. My sympathy to you and your family.

Dear Lynne and Family, Bill was indeed a treasured man and we have fond memories of his charming personality. We send our love and condolences. Pattie and Ron Culver
My condolences to you all …. to the family who have lost a husband, father and grandfather ….. and to his friends who have lost a wonderful friend …. Bill faced every day with humor, vim and vigor as he plunged into whatever endeavor he focused on … I first met him through teeth … mine were not good …. and he made them good …. and horses as his daughter and mine both started off on ponies and developed their impressive skills from there …. we criss-crossed Alberta and British Columbia at horse shows, showing up grabbing coffee to wake in the pre dawn hours helping to groom and get organized …. always a smile on his face and a kind word for everyone as he joked and bantered with the riders ….. he leaves behind a wonderful legacy in his family who share his compassion, concern and love for others …. the world is a sadder place because of his absence ….. but a better place because of what he brought to it … and I know everyone will remember where and when their paths crossed with Bill and will continue to smile at the memories of it …..
So sorry to hear of Bill’s passing, Lynne.
All my sympathy to you and your family.
Cathy
Dear Lynne & family,
May I extend my sincere condolences on the passing of Bill. He was always a bright spot in my day back when I came for my appointment at the clinic, and we always enjoyed a good chat. I wish you strength in the coming days, and peace of mind that he is now in a better place.
Exceptional influence in our lives…. I had the privilege of working and learning from Bill for years. I have never met a person with such genuine interest in others. His smile, his laughter , his compassion for people will be in my memories forever. I feel blessed to have known Bill.
Our deepest condolences,
The Hunts
Lynne and Family,
My condolences on Bill’s passing. Bill, Bob, Nick and I were all in the RCDC together. In fact we spent the summer of 1964 in basic training at CFB Borden and two additional summers of phase training there before completing dental school in 1967. Those were great summers! When we graduated I stayed in Halifax for my first posting and Bill, Bob, and Nick went back out west after their military commitment was completed and the close contact we had in our military training was lost. By the comments I have read he was both an outstanding husband and father and a dentist who was admired by his patients as well. You have many great memories to cherish. My God Bless you and help you through the difficult times.
Bill Gray, LCol. (ret’d)

Tim I would like to pass on our condolences to you and your family. I first meet Bill in 1981 and as you know I have spent more than my fair share of time at the dentists. I always looked forward to chatting with Bill and getting caught up on his travels and what you and your family were doing. We enjoyed talking business and investments and the occasional game of golf we played at Canyon Meadows. I will miss him he was one of the good guys.
Bob and Deborah
Lynne and Family
Just read of Bill’s recent passing. While we had not connected in
recent years, memories of growing up in Saskatoon have never
gone away. We certainly can not forget his acting as best man
at our wedding. The strongest memories we have are his
commitment to you, his service to the country and from reading
the recent condolences, the appreciation of his patients.
Our deepest sympathy to you and your family.
Jack and Fay McCorkell

So sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. He took care of my and my family’s dental needs over the years and did a wonderful job. Great dentist and a great guy.
Our thoughts are with his family.
To Dr. Bill’s family, friends and staff at the clinic; we are all so sad to hear of Bill’s passing. He was such a kind and happy soul. He was our family dentist from 1988 until his retirement, and always had an exciting adventure or an amusing story to share during our visits.
Dear Lynne and family,
John and I are saddened to hear of Bill’s recent passing. Just last week Bill
received compliments on his work some 35 years ago. Now in RI, my dentist
here said, “Whoever did your initial crown was a wonderful dentist.” How right he
was! Over the years, we’ve thought of Bill many times…caring, compassionate, and never boastful, and an exceptional dentist. He will be missed by many. May your wonderful memories bring you
peace. Our thoughts are with you all.
In sympathy and friendship.
Lynne,
It was so wonderful to see you this morning.
The memories my family have of Bill were many and all of them very
wonderful. What an wonderful, compassionate man he was, who made us all have a better day after seeing either at the malls or “in the chair”!
I (Lynn) was one of Bill’s first patients when he opened his practice. He meet our daughter Katherine & I one morning at 5:00 a.m. to do a root canal! Also, how he shocked me when he sent me flowers because I had shed one tear and had spent very long time in the chair. My friend could never believe that a dentist could be so wonderful.
To you, Lynne, Tim, Jane , Andrew and all your family our deepest sympathy. May Doctor Bill rest in peace.
To Dr. Bill’s Family,
We are very saddened to hear of Dr. Bill’s passing.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
We had both been a patient of Bill’s for many years and we will always remember his kindness and compassion.
He was an outstanding dentist.

It is with great sadness that we have learned of Bill’s passing. There are no words that can express our deep appreciation and respect for such a kind, caring, generous human being. He actually made a trip to the dentist something to look forward to! For more than forty years Bill gave three generations of our family excellence in dental care and we will never forget the time he actually got out of bed in the middle of the night to pull a tooth. Our deepest condolences go to the entire Kearns family. Bill has touched many hearts in his journey. May he rest in peace.

Jack and Marcia Jubenvill
I just saw the news of Dr. Bill’s passing and it saddens me to know that he is gone. He was a wonderful man who was so kind to my family and me for over 40 years. I still tell people of how kind he was and how he became our dentist, which was that Andrew and I were born on the same day and at the same hospital. I always used to tease him that I was pretty sure we were switched at birth. The consideration and love he showed his patients has been an inspiration for me and the relationships that I have with the patients in my day to day life. I am sure we are not the only family with stories of his kindness and how he accommodate his patients no matter what time it was. I remember him meeting my mother very late one night for a dental emergency and for meeting my father very early as well. A beautiful, happy soul has been lost but I would like to thank you all for sharing him with all of us for so many wonderful years. I am so sorry for your loss especially to his wife whom, it was so apparent, that he loved so very very much and his three children whom he was extremely proud of and never missed a chance to brag about wonderful they were band how dear to him you were. Thank you again for sharing such a wonderful man with all of us lucky enough to have known him.
Dear Jane, we have known your Dad for 40 years and it was always such a delight to see him at his clinic…..his warm smile, his sincere interest in what and how we were doing, his wonderful travel stories and the beautiful way he talked about his family. Dr. Bill will be in our thoughts forever. Our deepest condolences for you and your family. Janet Cebulka and Pedro Cebulka
To Lynn and family
I remember Bill as a most kind, gentle and caring person. He always took the time to listen, to welcome and to make people laugh. I know you will miss him and my thoughts are with you. I am sorry I cannot be at the memorial as I am committed to speak at conference. Love.
At this difficult time, may you find comfort in knowing that many are thinking of you and share in your sorrow.
With Heartfelt Sympathy,
The Kovac family, Martha, Hannes and the boys
It was always a great pleasure to visit Bill at his office or run into him around Lake Bonavista. He was always open for a sincere chat on any and every subject – hockey, golf, family, you name it. Bill was a true gentleman in every sense of the word.
Our family is thinking of your family … The McCreaths
So very sorry to hear of Bills passing.
A wonderful man and a compassionate and caring Dentist.
Love and Blessings. Robert and Bernadette Scott

We will miss his smile and joyfulness so much. Bill always had time for all. May he Rest In Peace and May the Kearns family continue to enjoy Bill through your wonderful and passed great memories.

Andrew, Melanie, Sawyer and Wyatt;
Thinking of you and your extended family during this time of grief and sorrow. May Bill’s generosity and bright smile be remembered as you cherish his legacy.
He was a wonderful man and had a great sense of humour. He made me feel at ease in his presence. A measure of a man is in the quality of children and grandchildren he leaves behind as his legacy and to this I can attest a great legacy.
My deepest sympathies
We are very sorry for your loss. I am glad my Dad had such a great friend as a part of his life. I will remember how Bill was always smiling and happy.
Christi McGown and Clayton Cook (Tobin and Andrew)
I remember Bill as a kind and compassionate person. I am sure you all have many happy memories of this remarkable person. He will be missed and fondly remembered.
What a great smile — a true gem, indeed. The world is a better place because of him…and it shows in the family and friends who have loved and supported him. Thinking about all of you now and sending much love.❤️
