Bill passed away, aged 74, on Wednesday, after a lengthy and courageous battle with prostate and bone cancer.

He was the son of the late Lloyd and Edna Alguire of St. Catharines. Survived by his wife Carol of 30 years. Father of John (Louise Parkinson), Heather (Mike Clarke), and Brian, and Carol's daughters, Janet (Murray Way), Susan (Kevin O'Connor) and Lynda (Bill McCauley).

Fourteen very special young people sorely miss Grandpa's presence in their lives: Lucy and Harriet Alguire; Jennifer, Alison and Lisa Clarke; Josh Alguire; Sheldon and Devon Way; Mitchell, Sydney and Alex Conrad; Rebecca, Michael and Joey McCauley.

Bill was also survived by his sister, Shirley (Bob Alguire), two nieces, a nephew, many cousins and his mother-in-law, Ann Hayden (#140444970).

Bill graduated from the University of Western Ontario in 1958 in Honours Business Administration and received his CA designation in 1962. He retired from Electrohome in 1997 after a 34-year career in accounting and financial management.

Bill was a long time, active member and Elder of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church in Kitchener and Knox Presbyterian Church in Meaford. From Cub and Scout leader in St. Catharines to Past-President of the Rotary Club of Meaford, Bill's life was spent serving others. He was a current member of the Kitchener Rotary Club. His love of the arts led him to serve as Board Chair of the Georgian Theatre Festival in Meaford for several years and he used his vocal talent to sing in his various church choirs throughout his life.

Cremation. Visitation was held at the Erb & Good Family Funeral Home, 171 King St. S., Waterloo on Sunday, December 13, 2009 from 2-4 and 7-–9 p.m. A service to celebrate Bill's life and faith was held at St. Andrews Presbyterian Church, 54 Queen St. N., Kitchener, on Monday, December 14, 2009 at 11 a.m. Refreshments followed in Iona Hall at the Church.
