So sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. A good part of my cottage was rebuilt by him. Such a kind, talented man. He will be missed.
Our deepest condolences to Bill's wife Cindy and his two daughters. He was such a great friend to our entire extended family, and a wonderful craftsman. He had such a great sense of humor. We will miss him.
I join my daughter, Aileen Thompson, in extending my sympathy to Bill Higham's wonderful family on the loss of a truly special person. Bill not only skillfully solved almost every carpenter-related problem in our 1868 MVCMA cottage over many years but became a trusted friend. We truly treasured not only his expertise as a master carpenter but also our many visits with him discussing multiple topics - always in a lighthearted way. Yes, we will miss you Bill.
