It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of William Alexander Robertson, who left us peacefully at the age of 73. William, known for his quick wit, humor, and infectious kindness, was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend.

Their 50+ years together were filled with love, laughter, and beautiful memories. William’s favorite moments were spent with Janet, whether they were visiting Kahana Sunset in Maui, enjoying the sunny days in Palm Springs, or simply sitting together on their patio in Sandy Point, WA.

In addition to his family, he is survived by countless friends and loved ones who were touched by his warm spirit and good-hearted humor. William’s legacy of love, laughter, and kindness will live on forever in the hearts of those who knew him.

Rest in peace, William. You will be missed but never forgotten.
