Doug Campbells Family

My deepest condolences to you, Annette, and the family, on the sad loss of Bill. My Mum was a great friend of Bill's and his Mum, Stella. He was a great man who loved his farm and supporting many organisations through his financial aptitude. May he now rest in eternal peace. His race has been run and his job is done.

Maryanne Richardson (nee Gooch)

A man who served his community well. I'm so very grateful for the many conversations we had travelling to and from Bay Trust meetings. RIP my friend.

You left us just a bit too soon Dad. You have left a very large Bill shaped hole in our lives that will never be filled or adequately acknowledged. Be at peace now, your journey is done. Miss ya Dad.
