McNeilly family reunion, May 2000

Here are some photos, courtesy of Deanna McNeilly, from a reunion held at April Point in May, 2000. Pictured in the first photo are many of Bill's cousins, along with his sisters Deanna and Jeannette, his sister-in-law Gail, their aunt Ruth Ryerse, and Bill and Lorraine and their daughter Maureen.

In this photo, you can see all five siblings: Bill, Deanna, Lanny, Jeannette and Kyle McNeilly.

Visiting Toronto

During a number of summer vacations, Bill, Lorraine and family would drive for many hours to visit family in the vicinity of Toronto, Ontario. We often stayed with Lorraine's mother, Jessie Collins, in her two-bedroom, sixteenth-floor (!) apartment in Don Mills. (Photo shown not actual size.)

Port Dover, Ontario

Bill grew up in Port Dover, Ontario. The McNeilly family home was a white farmhouse on Prospect Street. Here is are some pictures of the house, from a recent real estate sale. (It has been renovated, although the kitchen and living room still have the same basic structure as they had. The outside of the house seems remarkably like it was years ago.)
