March 2021), peacefully in Antrim Hospital after a short illness.
Bill has been the Provincial Assistant Grand Treasurer since November

elected as Provincial Grand Senior Warden in 2005

V.W. Brother Bill had been a member of North East M.L. No.525, St.
Andrews M.L. No.1012, Whiteabbey Past Masters M.L. No.993 and
Andrew Henderson M.L. No.512.
Bill was also a member of Jubilee Council of Knight Masons No.77 and
Carnmoney Council No.65. He was also a member of RAC No.449 and

He was a member of Amethyst Preceptory and the Belfast Chapter No.8.
V.W. Brother Bill was a quiet person and a worker, who enjoyed his
freemasonry, but did not crave the limelight.

Provincial Office colleagues.

and the members of Provincial Grand Lodge of Antrim are passed to Bill’s
