It is with great sadness to announce the passing of Angus, William (Bill) born March 25, 1959 of Maple Ridge, BC.
Bill lost his 2 year battle with cancer on August 5/2024, passing away peacefully in his home, lovingly surrounded by family and friends.
Bill is predeceased by his parents, Drs. Monica and Michael Angus. He is survived by his loving wife Lynn, his 3 children, son Alex (Amanda), daughters Madeline and Tamara, step-daughters Nicole and Natalie and granddaughters Amelia and Sakura. Also left to mourn are his sisters Janet (Roger), Katherine and brother Richard.
Bill earned a masters degree in counseling psychology, graduating with great distinction from Trinity Western University in 2001. Bill spent the second half of his life as a mental health counselor, working first in private practice and later for Fraser Health. He was an avid bridge player, reader and an enthusiastic karaoke singer, sometimes nudging others to sing along. He will be greatly missed by his family and many friends.
God needed another angel, this one taken much too soon.
Service will be scheduled at a later date.

I will never find a better karaoke partner. He was a loving parent, and most of all.. an accepting, comical and beautiful human being.
I couldn’t have been blessed with a better step dad.

I'm very sad to hear of Bill's passing. He was such an inspiration and a ray of sunshine. He had such a positive 'attitude of gratitude' and a big smile for everyone at the office. He deserved a long and fruitful retirement. I am sorry that this was cut short for him. My condolences to Lynn ( his Sweetie) and his family.

So sad to hear you passed. Guess we think people our age will be around forever. Happy you found Lynn to share these past years, to laugh, love and sing. Rest in Peace Bill.

He was an awesome human being and a great friend. He was very kind and a little bit comical. I remember his song he sang, Rebel Yell and it got everyone dancing. You’ll be deeply missed.

I have been so very fortunate to have known Bill and work alongside him. He was the best mental health counsellor I have ever met. He was kind with the patients, never losing his patience. He made the best crockpot dishes for our potlucks and I have never seen him without his big bright smile. He was so positive and funny and lit up the whole office! May god rest his beautiful soul and bring peace & strength to his loved ones.
