Obituary for William Franklin "Bill" Guthrie

William BILL Franklin Guthrie
August 18. 1923 - February 21, 2016

Born, farmed and raised his family on the family homestead in Whitby.

Loving husband and best friend of Jacqulin (Rose) Guthrie for 62 years. Father of Donald (Leslie), Wilma (Ted), Neil, Dwight (Linda), and Jennifer (Paul). Missed by grandchildren Kelly Cowan (Dave), Kristie Martin (AJ), Graham Smith (Holly), Lee-Ann Smith, Melissa and Stephanie Guthrie, Adrienne and Hannah Jones. Great-grandchildren are Cole, Lane, Brynn, Arianna and Kason.

Pre deceased by his parents William H Guthrie and Alice Westney, and his brother Bert. Survived by his sister-in-laws Grace Guthrie and Marjorie Mitchell and many nieces and nephews.
Bill and Jackie and family were members of the Audley United Church until its closure in 2004. They continue to worship at the Greenwood United Church.

Bill is a past president of the Ontario County Cattlemens Association, a life-long member of the Audley Community Club, 70 year member of the Composite Masonic Lodge and a 46 year member of the Order of the Eastern Star. Bill loved the farm and his family and many travels with Jackie until dementia slowly stole him from us in recent years.

Visitation will be held at Barnes Memorial Funeral Home 5295 Thickson Rd. N. Whitby on Thursday February 25th from 7:00-9:00 and on Friday February 26th from 1:00-2:00 followed by a memorial service honouring Bill’s life in the Barnes Chapel at 2:00 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, a donation to the Alzheimer's Society, Greenwood United Church or a charity of your choice would be greatly appreciated by the family.
