We wish to pass on to Diana and all the family our sincere condolences and sadness for the loss of Bill. His unexpected passing away was a big shock to us. He has been such a great man in so many ways and he has always been a cousin with a big smile, sense of humour and enjoying life.
We're currently in Canada, so a big apology not being able to attend Bill's funeral in person

Saddened to hear of Bill's passing. He was my boss at AGC and is the epitome of a great leader. He had great empathy towards his staff and backed them 100%. You always knew where you stood with Bill. My condolences to his family. You will be missed Bill, I will always remember your brilliant smile and laid back aura you had which calmed many around you.
