We were saddened to hear of Bill&&single&&s passing. I have wonderful and fond memories of Bill&&single&&s many years on Council. He was always good natured even during times of tense situations. It was taken for granted, even without self-promotion that Bill would lead the polls in any election.
Seaforth has lost a good person.
