Sorry to hear of the loss of your Dad, my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear BJ, Joanne and Tim. So sorry to here of your dad’s passing. He made me feel like one of the family from the first time I met him, and I always enjoyed those times when upon arriving at the farm I was whisked away for an hour or two’s drive to catch up or to show me one of his new projects. His dry sense of humour and his affection for his farm and family will be fondly remembered by all, and hope that your memories of Bill will comfort you at this time.

– how this man will be missed! I smile whenever I think of Bill – he was a loving and lively man and it was simply a joy to experience his wit and wisdom and spark and kindness. My condolences to all of his family – Deborah.

My condolences to the family. I know the McQuarrie family had a very special relationship with Bill. One of my best memories is when Joe made the horse and wagon for Bill, which was put outside on the barn facing hwy 4. Joe was so proud of it and to do it for Bill. Once again I send my sympathy.
