Suddenly at his home in Guelph on Sunday, April 27, 2025. William (Bill) Edward McKnight age 75 years, leaves behind his wife Joy of 53 years, his loving daughter Leslie and her husband Darryl Taylor, his grandsons Nixon and Cohen, his brother Joseph and his wife Fatima, his aunt Jean St. Louis, Father-in-law Sidney Kirsh, his nieces Nikki and Jodi, his nephews Rob and Jeff and cousins Barb, Linda and Kelli. Predeceased by his parents Ross and Evelyn McKnight.
Bill enjoyed Teatime at Colman’s Point. Sunday afternoons at Pottahawk, Friday nights at the “Park”
He dabbled in many hobbies. Hunting, horses, fishing and golfing but he loved boating on Lake Erie the most. He took every opportunity to spoil his family, and we will miss him.
Private cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Bill’s Life will be held at the Port Dover Royal Canadian Legion 212 Market St E., Port Dover on Wednesday, May 14, 2025 from 2-4 p.m.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the Guelph Humane Society or to the Canadian Cancer Society would be appreciated by the family. Donation cards are available at the Gilbert MacIntyre & Son Funeral Home, Dublin Chapel 252 Dublin St. N., Guelph or online at www.gilbertmacintyreandson.com
