Aged 93 years
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of William John Thomas, (known to most as Bill) who passed away peacefully on 19th October 2025.
Bill was a dearly loved husband, father, and grandfather, and was cherished by all who had the privilege of knowing him. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all whose lives he touched.
A service in celebration of William’s life will be held on Tuesday, 18th November 2025, at 2:00 p.m. in D.J. Thomas Private Chapel of Rest, followed by the committal at Brithdir Cemetery.
Following the service, all are warmly invited to join the family at Fleur de Lys Rugby Club to raise a glass and share fond memories of William.
In keeping with Bill's wishes, the family kindly requests that attendees refrain from wearing black ties and instead wear something of colour in their attire.
Family flowers only, please.
Donations in memory of Bill may be made to Cancer Research Wales.
All who knew and loved Bill are most welcome to attend and honour his memory.
