The William A. (Bill) Davis Bursary

Donor Story:

William (Bill) A. Davis grew up poor, in a tiny dirt floor school house; the only one to go to University. That is why he is so thankful to ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ for his education certainly changed his life and lifestyle. He spent his career with Ontario Hydro, retiring when he was 55 to enjoy that which truly made him happy: travel, curling and lawn bowling. He was 76 at his passing, at the beginning stages of alzeihmers, living at home alone. He passed away in his home, and was buried in a tiny northern Ontario cemetery with his parents.

It was my father's bequest to have a fund set up in his memory in Electrical and Applied Science. My father was very proud of earning his degree from ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ and he would be proud to know that his fund will continue to help a number of students to pursue their dreams of becoming Electrical Engineers. On behalf of my father, I would like to wish every student who has received financial support from this fund, continued success in their studies.
