In loving memory of William Arthur Stevens (Bill) who sadly passed away suddenly on 31st August 2019.
Bill was born in Liverpool but has lived in Silsden since being a baby. Took early retirement from Bradford Council and has spent the last 16 years “living the dream” in Cyprus.
He was a very proud father and grandfather, loving husband to Sharon for the last 34 years, my best friend and constant companion, his death has left a gaping hole in my life, I will love him and miss him for the rest of my days.

No flowers please, donations to the above charity would be greatly appreciated as we lost our first granddaughter, Kirsty, to sudden infant death syndrome when she was just 8 months old.
