We were sorry to hear of Bill's passing. He will always be remembered for his time with the Drummond Rugby team in the late 60s early 70s. Bill loved his rugby, especially the camaraderie of all the team. He mostly played as a winger, but Bill was happy to play where he was told by his old mates Murray Millar and Jack Hazlett. Bill loved his bus trips to Matakanui where you would always hear his well known trade-mark giggle as the bus kept rolling along.
Rest in Peace Billy Clarke.
