Obituary of William Anthony Van Eyk

Van Eyk, William “Bill”

Gone to be with his Lord and Saviour, William Van Eyk passed away on June 15, 2021 at the age of 81. Beloved husband of Pauline Van Eyk for 59 wonderful years. Cherished dad to Ken Van Eyk, Jeff (Debbie) Van Eyk and Joline (Robert) Brant. Loving Opa to Josh (Mackenzie), Kassia (the late Alfred), Hayley (Tom), Jacob (Katie), Megan (Ben), Shawna, Trisha, Lindsay (Kevin), Chad (Rachel), Zachary (Ryann), Jess (Chris) and Mitch (Caitie). Great-Opa to Jase, Scarlett, Aubree, Huxley, Bailey and Rory.

Bill was rarely seen without a smile on his face, a twinkle in his eye and candies in his pocket.

His loves included all sports, hunting, fishing and anything that involved his grandchildren. He was a talented carpenter, an avid fisherman and always willing to lend a hand.
