So sorry to hear of Bill's passing. Our daughter, Collette, passed the information along to me this morning and it brought back a memory of Bill.
In the 1980's, Collette so wanted a cabbage patch doll for Christmas. Of course, it was the most popular girl toy that year. I looked everywhere for one and other family members were looking, as well.
One day, I went into Stedman's looking for one. While speaking with Bill, I told him my story and he said, "I'll get you one" and he did. He was a man of his word. It made our daughter's Christmas.

Keith, Shirley and families. I am so sorry to hear if Bill’s passing. I recall many overnight visits, being weighed upon arrival and leaving, always with a smile. He was a true community guy, family man and good guy. I am so very sorry Birdhouse Willy has left us. I know for sure he was greeted by Bob once he left this life and moved through the door to wherever it is we go. Stay well.

We will all miss Willy and his hot chocolate. Bill was one of Port Perry’s greatest humanitarians. If any person or organization needed help, Bill would rally his friends and fix the situation. He was everyone’s friend.

My "Willy" birdhouse flies at half mast in tribute to unique Bill. My thoughts are with you, especially, "Little Wren" Shirley, and all the Nestlings (Diane, Earle, Keith, Brian) and their families. He will be missed by many, notably all those returning birds whom he so ably housed, and his community service groups. A rara avis, indeed! Diane Lackie

We stopped so many times to purchase a birdhouse or five. The first time I was there i explained my grandparents Tom and Brenda Wilson used to live in his house . Every time I stopped he remembered me and told me stories about my grand father Tom Wilson. It made me feel so wonderful. Thank you for the many years of shared memories. My condolences to his family and many friends .

So sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. He was a wonderful man, so generous and caring. He was always willing to donate a prize for our auction benefitting the Operation Scugog food bank.
We spent many times in the workshop watching his chipmunks get treats from his pocket, as long as we brought his double double coffee and his doughnut.
Loved the man!!
He will be missed by all. We would be there but still in Florida for now.
