Martin WilliamMARTIN, William Erskine  -  On Wednesday, June 19, 2019, Bill passed peacefully at North York General Hospital, with his family holding his hands, following a devastating car accident on June 13th.

He was 83-years-young.

Darling high school sweetheart, husband and best friend for 63 years to Jane Isabel Mowat.

They met in 1954, in the choir at Oakwood Collegiate Institute (best in TO in the '50s!).

Son of Bill and Agnes Martin, dearly loved by late son Graham Douglas, daughter Lynne, granddaughter Super-girl, Sarah Steed (Grant), great-grandsons Taran William and Dylan. He was a cousin to Pat Stanley, much loved uncle to many Mowat nieces and nephews, especially Pat Wood and many cousins in New Zealand.

His refuge since his serious accident last August had been the music and choir at St. Tim's, Jonathan and the people in it. Friends and acquaintances considered him a kind, humorous and gentle man of integrity.

He believed in organ donation, but sadly his were refused. The Funeral/Memorial service will be on Monday, June 24th, at 2 p.m., at St. Timothy's Anglican Church, Agincourt, 4125 Sheppard Ave. East.

In lieu of flowers, please donate to Sleeping Children Around the World, 28 Pinehurst Cres., Toronto, M9A 3A5, or the charity of your choice.
