It is with deep regret that we announce the death of Bill McIntosh on June 6 after a lengthy illness. He was preceded by his parents and seven siblings, survived by Ethel, his loving wife of over sixty years, his three children Doug, Rod (Linda) and Lisa, and three almost perfect grandsons Liam, Stuart and Colm. Bill was born in Rossburn, Manitoba on July 31, 1929. The day after he graduated from high school he started work at the Bank of Toronto where one of his first duties was to fill the ink wells and put out clean blotters. By the time he retired as senior vice president Pacific Division of The Toronto Dominion Bank computers had entered the banking system. He loved banking and had a successful career which he always attributed in large part to the great people he worked with. Next to his family and banking Bill loved sports -- he played baseball and hockey as a boy and was always proud to tell people that his team won the Junior B championship 1947-48. He was a fast if not exactly smooth skier, he regularly shot his age on the golf course and he was a much sought partner on the dance floor. As for his bridge game, it was something else.
We will miss him more than words can tell.
A celebration of life will be held at Shaughnessy Golf and Country Club, on Sunday, June 24th from 2PM-4PM.
