Suddenly on June 14, 2022. Predeceased by his son Alexander. Beloved son of Gorden Douglas and Mary Jane (Hocking). Survived by his loving wife Vickie and sister Kathleen Jensen (Mark). Sadly missed by his aunts, Kathleen Gamble, Georgia Gull (Richard Smith) Dianna Martin (Fernand), uncle James Hocking, niece, Darcy and nephew Kevin Jensen, his cousins and his many friends.

Bill’s constant companion was his dog “Tyson”. His extended family included Kate  (Averie and Colton), Danny and Thomas (Melanie), Christopher, Bill and Jeanine, Steven and Genene, Tim, Steve and Barb. Bill is also lovingly remembered by Vivianne, Marcia, Jasmine, Chloe and Hannah.

He enjoyed his motorcycles and drifting down the Rideau in his boat. A fish or two was always a bonus. Bill believed a bad day on the range was better than a great day at work, not that there was ever a bad day at the Stittsville Shooting Club.

Resting at Beechwood Funeral Home, Ottawa

Visiting July 13, 2022, 1200 to 1400 with interment immediately following in the National Military Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers donations to the Ottawa Humane Society or the Charity of your choice would be appreciated.

Very sad news, worked with Bill for a couple of years at DND Tunney's. He was the kind of co-worker that everybody wants to work with. Always ready to encourage with a good natured joke and a laugh. In words that Bill would use "I miss you man!"
