Karen I wish I could be there to support you and your wonderful family. Bill was an extremely kind and generous host when I had the pleasure of joining you in your home. I can't begin to imagine the sense of loss you are felling. Know that he left an impression on many as did your love for each other which was clearly evident.

Big hugs from my family to yours.

He is forever in your hearts

Karen I am truly so so sorry to hear of Bill's passing. My condolences to you and your beautiful loving family. I have been trying for days to write something to you that might make you smile at this very sad time a happy memory because growing up on the beach with all the guys was very memorable if you know what I mean. I remember many a night I would hear a familiar giggle and of course it was Bill, and my mom would then comment he came to see me and not you which of course brought more laughter. But he had stopped to visit mom and share a cup of tea and this happened often. My mom would always say as he was leaving you behave cause those eyes, that smile and the good looks could get you in trouble and of course more laughter. Life went on and then we were spending a night with you and Bill in B.C.and the three kids on our way to Vancouver island. You were most gracious hosts. I had another memory of being in Parksville with Melissa and I am sure Bill was her first crush. I can picture her wearing his cowboy boots and hat and sitting at a table with Bill and her Dad. Of course there was also the big blue camper truck known as Harry's Hotel Motel where a few drinks were shared among the boys. Bill was always smiling, sharing stories with the kids, and respectful. You also opened your home to Kerry which we very much appreciated and she remembers that well. I will hold these memories close to my heart Karen. I must say you were his love and you look as beautiful now as back in the day. Surround yourself with the love and your amazing children and grand babies. Cry when you need to, hold on to all the precious memories, of happy times and know he will walk beside you everyday and hold you up. Love and hugs to you and the family. Judy, Kerry, David and my heavenly angel Melissa. She would have given him a big hug when he arrived to his heavenly home.

I sat for an hr just think of memories that we all had with Wonder Bill and just started writing now or I’d still be thinking Laughing hearing his laugh so I decided to start writing! Who ever wrote about Bill on the funeral notice was so right on! Exactly the way we all knew and loved him! The day he dyed I stayed up almost all night just thinking of all the times we had with a group or just him n I! I smiled,I laughed, I cried because like most people who came in contact with him just loved him from the beginning and felt so lucky that they came into contact with this blue eyed devil of a man who had looks that we all wished we had and his laugh and humor was second to none. As far as memories go I have so many that I could write for hrs n hrs. Bill loved his family so much and we all loved them. When he met Karen she became the love of his life and he loved so strong. She was the only woman who could tame him become from employers n friends he was sometimes know as Wil Bill but not in a bad way or reckless just mischievous. It is a very sad time for me but I cherish the memories that he and I made together and know that I will never ever forget this Wonderful Son Father Brother Husband Granfather Uncle and Friend of a man! Love ya Bill !! RIP!!

I remember sitting in Dynes, and Bill would come over to me and say I got u another race. So I would say how much, and it would be a cash amount, and drinks. So we would go outside and I would sprint race these guys Bill would get sitting in Dynes. Race from the sidewalk to the tracks. We never lost a race lol. We would laugh so hard after the race ,happy that we won. Bill would collect the money, and order the drinks. A we split the winnings lol. There was always something going on like that. Also I remember going over to the John's club in Boffalo ,just over the boarder. I think there were 4 of us. This bar was a rough bar, and it was said that the owner who served drinks behind the bar killed a man once. So anyway as usual we ended up fighting with these guys, and in about one minute the whole bar, and I mean the whole bar was fighting each other. It was crazy. So us 4 guys slipped out while everyone was still fighting inside lolol.

Sending my deepest condolence to Karen, Maggie, Cody, Grandbabies, John, Tom, June, Family & Friends on the loss of Bill.

I send love & hugs to you all. I met Bill in the 60's as a young teen. Have many memories and laughs of hanging out with him. Our Beach group were all quite tight back then. I remember going to his Boxing matches. Many house parties and the Dynes Tavern. We hung out a few times when I lived in Calgary. I was at Bill & Karen's wedding in Calgary. It was so much fun. Lost touch when I returned to Ontario. Last time we had a chat was in Dynes when him & Karen came back for a visit. You are up there having a party with our Friends that have passed. Rest in peace Bill Hall. Until we meet again.

Dennis and I were so sorry to hear of Bill’s illness and subsequent passing. We send condolences from our entire Lanthier/Durocher family on the passing of ‘your’ Bill, a wonderful husband, father, father in law, brother, grandfather, and friend to many. My favourite memory of Bill was when we would sit or stand congenially at Wisewood football games discussing the plays on those golden crisp Autumn days, a whiff of dry leaves always in the air. Such happy days and happy memories. I remember Bill as a well spoken, kind and inclusive man, always a soft twinkle and expression in his eyes. He took such a genuine interest in ‘our’ Fraser amongst others of Cody’s friends who played football. That genuine interest always touched me deeply. Fraser was very very fond of Bill. I think they shared a sense of humour, and Fraser saw him as so ‘real and authentic’, funny and above all accepting. That meant so much to Fraser. Heaven forbid Fraser might miss the Hall’s annual Corn Roast. I was always under strict orders to make it back from our summer sojourns back east before Labour Day!! What a wonderful tradition Bill and all of you started for all the kids to look forward to. We truly hope that the memories of Bill’s wonderful steadfastness and love will help to carry you all up through this time, and the future memories of your two newest blessings will also help

as you carry on. We like to think that Fraser has already met Bill in the hereafter, and they are sharing a mischievous laugh over some fun antic together.

Roberta, Dennis, Toran, Tyler, Ashwin and Kieran. We are all sending so much love to all of you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Our deepest Condolences Karen and family, my thoughts and prayers go out to all of you at this difficult time. Take it one day at a time as a family and always be there for each other. Bill was a wonderful man and will be missed by many (even though I never met him) when we would talk Karen I could just imagine the man he was. He will never be forgotten as he will always be with you and the family in your Hearts.

Love and hugs to all

Love Cathy Klepic
