SCOTT,
William Spurgeon (Bill)
It is with great sadness we share with you the passing of, William Spurgeon
Scott on November 25th at the CR Dist. Gen. Hospital, with the love and care
of family by his side. He is survived by his sisters Janet and Mary, sons
and daughters Wendy, Berna (Bert), Bill (Judy), Mary Ellen (Tom), Robin
(Hilda), Faye Dene (Dan), daughter-in-law Judy, many grandchildren, great
grandchildren, two great-great grandchildren many nieces, nephews, and many,
many dear friends.
He was predeceased by his wife Bernice, son Bernard, son-in-law Bill,
granddaughter Janet, grandsons Wade and Randy.
Bill was born May 4, 1926 in Bathurst, New Brunswick, the youngest son of
eight children; there were six boys and two girls. He worked hard as a young
lad on the family farm until the end of Word War II. Then with the help of
family, and much encouragement, he rode the train to the West Coast in
search of employment along with his brother Sam. He lived a prosperous 81
years of raising a family of seven children with Bea, working hard
throughout the North Island, mainly in the logging industry, and enjoying
his favourite hobbies: camping, fishing, farming and baking. He was most
passionate regarding his family and being a part of their lives. Bill loved
the outdoors and enjoyed making people laugh with him over his own life's
stories. We will miss his sense of humour and his teasing.
He has gone to be with all his loved ones that have gone before him.
A Celebration of Life Service will be held Saturday, December 1, 2007 at
12:00 noon, at the Elks Lodge, 516 South Dogwood Street. Refreshments to
follow.
A special thank you from Bill's family for the kind and caring medical
service provided to him over the years by Dr. Kate and Dr. Rob Sutherland.
He truly enjoyed sharing his life's journey with you both during his
retirement years. Also a huge thank you to all the Campbell River Hospital
3rd floor nursing staff; you helped Bill and his family make it through a
difficult experience; you are true professionals in your field.
In lieu of flowers please make donations to the Canadian Diabetes
Association.

We love you dad.
We little knew that morning, that god was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly; in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you; you did not go alone.
For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories; your love is still our guide;
And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
