Obituary

William Johnston Walker of Ailsa Craig passed away suddenly at Strathroy Middlesex General Hospital on Thursday, February 18, 2021, at the age of 66.

Bill was the best friend and loved partner of Sue Couture for over 20 years and will be missed by his family Alex, Ashley, Stephanie, Renee, and Jonny. Bill had a special bond with his grandchildren and will be remembered with love by Jayden, Hailee, Kenzie, Liam and his four legged buddy Sheba.

A true Scotsman, Bill could be described in Scottish dialect, as a crusty teddy bear; stubborn on the outside and frugal on himself, but caring and generous with those around him whom he cared for so deeply. A man who loved to camp, Bill and Sue enjoyed their time in the sun at their favourite camping parks.

Arrangements are entrusted to M. Box & Son Funeral Home, 183 Broad Street in Parkhill, 519-294-6382. Please leave a memory or condolence online at www.GilpinFuneralChapel.com

To Susan , Alex and family So sorry to hear of Billy's passing. I had the pleasure of meeting Bill quite a few years back while playing darts with him and immediately struck up a friendship. We had a lot of laughs and I will miss him. May his memories be a blessing to you. Dan Heywood
