So sad to hear of Bill's passing. Sending all my love and thoughts to all of the family. I am sure Mary was waiting for him. A great man who was part of our family for many many years.

Our thoughts are with you all. Bill will be missed by the Souness Family (Te Anau) We have many memories of ‘Billy’... a couple of comments from our children who grew up with Bill being part of their lives... ‘Thought he would always be hiding under a pile of junk’... ‘Loved being in the silage trucks with his corgis’... We remember Billy for his smile, his calm approach to life, his ‘warehouse & yard of parts/junk’, and his knack of finding bits to fix stuff! We’re sure you are poking around in the junk yard in the sky Billy! RIP
