As soon as I joined the Downie family, the stories of the Bilton x Downie family shenanigans became something I got to know and cherish. Getting to know Bill, alongside the stories told by Dylan and Denny was the absolute best. He’ll be sorely missed… and nobody will ever be as tough! Love and hugs to the entire Bilton family.

We cannot attend his Celebration of Life, but will be thinking of you Janice, Jacie, Mitch, and family.
Our deepest sympathies on your loss.

My condolences to the entire family. Billy was a great man. He was my D partner on the Petrolia Jets and yes you would definitely need to be looking up as opposed to down while coming towards our end of the ice. I used to buzz his house in my airplane and Billy would make his way to the deck to wave if he was able. Goodbye my friend. You will be sorely missed by all who knew you.

I babysat Billy as a young child; he was the cutest sweetest little man and quite visibly grew into a handsome young man as time flew by. Always a pleasure to run into him. Although distance makes one miss out on much of others lives; I will always admire the man he grew to be. Our sincerest condolences to his family and community. Mary Jean Prangley

Janice & Families: Paula and I are very sorry to read of your loss of Billy. Although it has been many years since we have seen you both, you were two of our favorite people we met when we were teammates of the Chatham Sr. Maroons. He always had your back on the ice and you are right about the other team keeping their head up. That is why I gave him the nickname BOXCAR BILTON.
Just a great guy to be around. You are in our thoughts and prayers at this time.
