BERROW, William Leland
Jun. 11, 1924 - May 3, 2020
Bill (Wild Bill) passed of natural causes on Sunday evening May 3, predeceased by his wife Evelyn and survived by his son Tom (Mary Lou), daughter Lee-Ann, grandchildren Robert (Olga), Shane (Wendy), Shannon (Jose) and great grandchildren Eli and Wyatt. Born on a homestead in Red Deer, AB, the second oldest of nine siblings. Also saddened by his passing are many relatives and friends. Bill survived the "Great Depression and Dirty Thirties", freight trains, World War II as a dispatch rider for the 69th Transport Company, motorcycle crashes, logging, tugboats and construction. He was a natural storyteller and would strike a conversation with anyone, also listening intently to their story. He will be missed dearly but his life and stories will live on in the memories of family and friends. Bill, we will miss you!
