William 'Bill' Fitzgerald, 78, passed away on Friday, October 31 in Dresden, ON after a brief illness.
Fitzgerald was a longtime harness racing fan and owner. He and his wife, Grace, passed on their passion for standardbreds to their four children, Barry, Bonnie (Craig) Brewer, Brian (Joan) Fitzgerald -- all from Dresden -- and Ken (Cindy) Fitzgerald from Carlisle, ON.
Some of the horses that passed through the Fitzgerald clan over more than the past three decades were Annie Dodger, Canny Greentree, Dream Time Bretta, Proxahantis, Exonerated, the currently-racing Beal Hanover and many others.
Fitzgerald will be sadly missed by all, including his nine grandchildren.
Please join Standardbred Canada in offering condolences to the family and friends of Bill Fitzgerald.
