I remember well the “old days” when we were all “The Gas House Gang” Bill seemed so much part of that group. So sorry to hear that he has passed.

To the Hammond family, please accept my condolences.
I bet he will be setting up the tables and chairs in the “Big Hall” up there!

My condolences to the Hammond family on the passing of Bill.
My memories of Bill while working for the Victoria Gas Department were of a man that did his job to the best of his ability and with a smile on his face.
He was a member of a great crew that at times worked under very difficult circumstances. Thank you Bill and rest in peace.
