PINCOMBE: Bill of RR 3 Exeter

Posted By Haskett Funeral Homes On July 28, 2026 @ 4:16 PM In Exeter, Obituary | 179 Comments

PINCOMBE: Bill of RR 3 Exeter

Bill passed away peacefully with his loving wife by his side at South Huron Hospital on Monday, July 27, 2026, one month shy of his 88th birthday. Loving husband of Louise (Hockey) Pincombe for over 64 years. Proud dad of Brenda Pincombe and Sandy Dehling, and Scott Pincombe. Dear grandpa of Alex, Aaron; Bret and Megan, and Kiley and Mitch and great-grandpa of Deacon, and Emmett. Dear brother-in-law of Anne and Gerard Overholt, Mary Hockey and Kenneth Mallett, and David and Mary Evelyn Hockey. Fondly remembered by his many nephews and nieces. Predeceased by his parents Verne and Vera (Coates) Pincombe, and sister and brother-in-law Dorothy and John Taylor.

A lifelong farmer, Bill was happiest on the land and so, spent his entire life calling it home. Though he enjoyed escaping to warmer climates, his love of farming never took a vacation, and he always found himself taking notice of the fields and farms wherever he travelled. His life’s greatest harvest, however, was the family he loved so dearly.

A celebration of Bill’s life will be held at Haskett Funeral Home, 456 Main Street South, EXETER on Thursday, August 6th from 1 – 4 PM, with words of remembrance at 2 PM. A private family graveside will be held at Exeter Cemetery.

Donations to South Huron Hospital Foundation would be appreciated by the family.

The family would like to extend a sincere thank you to Dr. Jadd and all of the staff at the South Huron Hospital for the care and compassion shown to Bill and his family.

I never met Bill Pincombe and I will never forget him.

During the years I grew up in Exeter, 1949-1971, I would often see Bill at hockey games at the old Exeter Arena. I was always impressed with how he looked and with the way he conducted himself. I remember thinking on more than one occasion, that’s how I want to be.

Condolence from VanMaanen Family on August 1st, 2026 10:40 AM

Oh Louise! I am so sorry to hear about Bill. Emma will be so sad to hear this news. We were just talking about Bill 2 days ago when in Exeter. Emma was saying she missed him and wanted to come and visit him and collect rocks in the crops (knowing she missed rock collecting season this year). Emma loved Bill so much. We giggle about when Bill couldn’t believe how strong Emma was … saying she picked him up like ‘a toothpick’. Bill always had a friendly wave when out and about on his ATV. We enjoyed all our little visits over the years, including every Halloween. Thinking of you and all of your family xoxo

Condolence from Clare & Brenda (Parsons) Martene & Family on August 1st, 2026 7:53 PM

We Offer Our Heartfelt Condolences …

Dear: Louise, Brenda (Sandy), Scott, & Family / Extended Families & Friends . . .

No words can truly capture the depth of pain & sorrow your family is dealing with at this immensely sad time with the passing of Bill (Pinky). His obituary & all the online condolences are all such beautiful tributes as to how he will be forever remembered as: a wonderful loving husband, father, grandpa, great-grandpa, dear friend & hard-working farmer. Bill had his share of earthly health struggles over the years & managed them with incredible strength & courage.

❤️ “Though he may no longer walk beside you, his love will forever light your way.” ❤️

What a privilege it was to know this great lifelong family friend of our “Parsons Family,” so many great memories of him visiting at my parents (Jack & Marion Parsons – now deceased) farm for so many years. Pinky’s warmth for the people he cared about was obvious, his grinning smile, his hearty laugh, & his ability to reminisce & tell a story about the younger hellion childhood years with my Dad was legendary. Pinky, you left an amazing imprint on our family & also in the Usborne farming community with your immaculate farm – so many hearts grieve your loss – we are all so blessed to have had you in our lives. R.I.P. Pinky, you will be missed – but not forgotten! ❤️

May you find strength in each other now & in the difficult days ahead. Pinky’s memory will forever live on, in the stories, pictures, laughter, tears & love that you all shared as a family & may they heal your hearts & bring smiles through your tears. Someday, not now, & perhaps not for a long while— you will remember all you shared with less pain & more joy. But for now— just know Pinky is resting peacefully with all his Loved Ones that have greeted him with open arms, especially my parents … I’m sure they are reminiscing about the good ole Usborne days, playing cards, having coffee & eating Mom’s cookies.

❤️ “When we lose someone we love, we must learn not to live without them, but to live with the love they left behind.” ❤️

❤️Love & Hugs, Clare & Brenda (Parsons) Martene & Family❤️

Dear Pincombe family,
We were so saddened to hear of Bill’s passing. He truly was one of the gentlest, kindest people you could ever meet. A true salt of the earth.

I know he and my dad shared so many great memories from their days at Ridgetown College and playing hockey together. It was also such a pleasure to reconnect with Bill, Louise and Brenda last fall. We are so grateful we had that time together.

Our deepest condolences to the entire family. May you find comfort in the many memories, the laughter, and the love Bill shared with everyone who knew him.

Rest easy, Bill. You will be fondly remembered and deeply missed. ❤️

Condolence from Tom Coates on August 4th, 2026 4:20 PM

Louise, Brenda, Scott and your families,

Please accept our heartfelt condolences on Bill’s passing, he has been in my thoughts and prayers. We have such a long history that I think my friendship with Scott started when we moved from town to the farm at a very young age. I always remember Bill being there whenever we needed help, getting to hockey practices or games, borrowing tractors, helping deliver a calf, bale wagons, etc. etc. He had the best of sense of humor, gifted at teasing, stirring things up and I don’t ever remember him being mad or upset. An amazing farmer, father and friend. I feel fortunate to have grown up with his kids and for his friendship. Rest in Peace Pink and keep it interesting up there.
Tom and Jill Coates

Condolence from Carrie & Gerald Van Osch on August 4th, 2026 9:38 PM

Louise, Brenda, Scott & Family,

Thoughts and prayers to you and yours continue…

The love of land, farming and family went hand in hand with Bill. Ger says he always enjoyed chatting roadside about crops & weather with Bill when he would come along on his ATV. I remember how Ger and Bill were oblivious to anyone else around when they got to chatting farming. Their full attention on each other no matter how many in the room. 😊

He and his smile will be missed. May Bill RIP,
Carrie & Gerald Van Osch
