Obituary of William McQuaid

William McQuaid of Stratford on January 27^th, 2019, age 72. Son of the late Frank and Margret McQuaid. He is survived by his loving wife Rosemary (née Fanelle), devoted  daughters Tara Mote (Chris), Dayna McQuaid (Jon-Michael), treasured grandsons Brayden and Gavin Mote, cherished sisters Theresa Graham (George), Margret Christy, and loving in-laws Diane Williams (John), and Frank Fanelle (Maria), and also many nieces and nephews.

Bill was a very loving husband, father and Pop to his grandsons. He was a little quirky at times but whomever he met loved him. He was always a kind soul and never had a bad word to say about anyone. He loved the ladies and always gave them a kiss whether he knew them or just met them; it didn’t matter. He loved life and his family, whom were an important part of his life. Until recent years he loved going on cruises and going to the shore. Diabetes took a toll on him and he eventually  lost his fight with the disease.

He was my rock, my love and my best friend. Rest in Peace, my love.
