Deeply missed by his partner of over 35 years, Kathy (Holland) Lovie. Dear brother and brother-in-law of Laurie and Ted Stanlake, Paul Lovie, and Diane Lovie. Fondly remembered by the Holland family, many nieces and nephews, their four legged companion Niche and good friends Ivan and Brenda Hern. Predeceased by his parents Cecil and Olive (Shortt) Lovie, brothers, Gary, Ed, and David and sister-in-law Sally.
Bill was always “under a car”. Whether he was fixing up a car to race around the track at Delaware Speedway, being the family “handyman/mechanic” tending to his loved ones vehicles, or spending time in his home building model cards, he loved all things cars. He loved hockey, spending many years at the rink coaching kids, showing them his love of the game.
