December 3, 1937 October 17, 2013
William (Bill) Reedyk passed away at the age of 75 years on Thursday, October 17, 2013 at his home in Campbell River, BC. Bill was born on December 3, 1937 in Westmaas, Netherlands, to Len and Mary Reedyk. After immigrating to Canada and serving in the Canadian Navy, Bill never lost his love of the ocean. In 1975 he moved his family from Taber, Alberta to the pristine surroundings of Vancouver Island. Bill owned and operated a successful painting company for 26 years, building many meaningful friendships in the community along the way. Bill always enjoyed a good laugh, a good cup of coffee and a good game of cribbage, but what Bill really loved was his Saviour, Jesus Christ. He was a member of Campbell River Baptist Church, singing in the choir for many of his years there.
He is remembered by his loving and devoted wife of 48 years, Margaret; his children, grandchildren, and numerous relatives and friends.
A memorial service will be held at 1pm on Friday, October 25, 2013 at Campbell River Baptist Church, 260 S. Dogwood St. Campbell River, BC V9W 6Y7. In lieu of flowers, memorial gifts can be made to the ministries of Campbell River Baptist Church.
