Everyone who has known Bill Donald understands that our lives have been touched by a man of great generosity and dedication to Willowdale Lawn Bowling Club.

Bill’s efforts and care were not only recognized by the club when he was made a life member, but also by the province when he received the Volunteer of the Year award a few years ago.

Without Bill, the club would have struggled to function. He was the greenskeeper for many years, and he took great pride in delivering the best greens in Toronto, including greens for two national championships.

He was so well respected that city staff gave their all to ensure we had what he required for the club. Bill was regularly the drawmaster for tournaments. He was an umpire, and even a regular sponsor of tournaments. No one has ever given more to Willowdale Lawn Bowling Club than Bill Donald.

Bill was a friend to everyone. He was knowledgeable, humble and a great advisor.

Goodbye Bill, you will not be forgotten.

Gordon Jones
President
Willowdale Lawn Bowling Club
