It is with deep sadness that the family of William (Bill) Ian Sharp announces his passing. Bill passed away peacefully at the Fountainview Care Facility on Monday March 27th 2023 in his 84th year.

Forever loved by his wife of almost 60 years Frances Eleanor Sharp nee Arber. Loved by his children always, Douglas (Barb) Katherine (John) and Suzanne (Mike). Known fondly as Papa and Grandpa by his grandchildren Maeve, Mason, Perrin, Meghan, Jackson and Logan.

Beloved big brother to Ellen Sharp-Roworth and friend to the late George Webster. Brother in law to Patricia Arber and the late Ross Arber and Mary Valdal and the late Ivan Valdal. Bill will also be missed by many nieces and nephews.

Bill will always be remembered as quite the handyman who spent all of his free time tinkering outside in his younger years listening to his favourite Johnny Cash songs. Mostly Bill will forever be remembered for the love he had for the love of his life Frannie and never leaving her side through her life long battle with Multiple Sclerosis.

Cremation has already taken place. Celebration of life will take place at the Toronto Don Valley Hotel on Friday April 14th from 2-6pm.
