Thanks Will for all the great memories we had growing up together. From a young age playing on Hercules Road causing mischief over the golf course,sledging,skating and having water fights with all the neighbours. Then growing up together going through middle school and high school, holidays, sharing the same like in music and the endless drunken nights of me and you walking home together from the rec. We definitely achieved alot together and our memories will last forever. I am certainly going to miss you Will.

We cannot believe we are writing this William. We remember the fun we had when we all went camping years ago, always so happy and funny. You were always loved, will be always missed, but never forgotten. Rest in peace William. Xx

In the 4 years I knew Will I don't think there was a day at work we didn't laugh. Especially enjoyed our lunchtime meetings in the 'office'as you called it. You helped me through one of the lowest points in my life & for that I'm eternally grateful brother. That smile & laugh lit up a room & your personality certainly filled it! 'Where there's a Will there's a way' Rest easy bro..until we meet again ❤

  • It's the least I could do. Will helped so many from what I've seen & that speaks volumes for the man he was and why he was loved & respected by so many. I truly am so so sorry for your families loss.
