Obituary of William Douglas Sutherland

WILLIAM D. BILL? SUTHERLAND Bill passed away peacefully on Saturday, August 4, 2012, at the age of 87 years. He is survived by his loving wife of fifty-nine years, Margaret; sisters Elizabeth and Dorothy; and several nieces and nephews. After many years farming near Disley, Bill and Marg moved to Regina where he worked for Saskatchewan Crop Insurance and later as manager of the Highland Curling Club. An avid baseball player in his younger days, Bill also loved curling and golf, especially looking forward to the annual trips to Arizona. Always good-natured, with a ready smile and sense of humour, Bill made friends wherever he went. In his later years, he struggled with Parkinsons disease, but never lost his spirit. He will be sadly missed by his family and the many friends who loved him. Family would like to thank the staff of 4West in Pioneer Village for their care and thoughtfulness. Funeral Service will be held at Speers Funeral Chapel, 2136 College Avenue, Regina, SK on Friday, August 10, 2012 at 1:00 p.m. A reception will follow. Interment in Regina Memorial Gardens. In lieu of flowers, donations in memoriam may be made to the Saskatchewan Parkinsons Disease Foundation, P.O. Box 21010, Gardiner Park RPO, Regina, SK, S4V 1J4.
