Sending our deepest condolences to Mrs. Roule & all of the family . We are saddened to hear of Mr. Roule’s passing . He was a precious gem …excellent businessman, carpenter, a gentleman, kind hearted, family oriented, friendly & a great sense of humour . He built a door with a window in it for our house in Patrick’s Cove, just last year and made me a lovely set of wooden coasters which I will forever cherish . He wasn’t well at the time but didn’t hesitate to take on the door project . We have beautiful furniture in our home , which I am proud to say you both made / designed for us . I will always treasure your friendship and kindness. God Bless you all .

Sincere condolences to Mrs Roule and her family . I have to say Mr Roule was a great business . He took on a big project back in 2018 for my family homestead in Southeast . I approached him the summer of 2018 and told him no hurry to get the windows done . Spring of 2019 he had made 11 old style windows . Our 125 year Old Homestead looks great with the new windows . He was a lovely man to chat with . He said he knew my parents .
Rest In Peace Mr Roule

Roule family, sorry for your loss. He was such a kind, wonderful man, and I feel very lucky to have known him. He was incredibly talented in all he done. One of my fondest memories of him will always be his skate sharpening. He was the only person I trusted with my figure skates—he knew exactly how I liked them, right down to where I preferred a little more or less sharpness, and somehow always got them perfect. He will be deeply missed. ❤️

Mrs Roule and all the family and friends so sorry and sad to hear the news of the passing of your loved one.
This man had such a presence larger then life personality.
We visited the shop on several occasions and if something could be repaired it was done or you got the best recommendation on how to do so and what he done just like Mrs. Roule it was done to perfection.
Never rushed and was willing to talk about anything from picking berries to his cabin and his family back home , it's very rare now to meet someone that could do their job' well ' but yet found the time to engage in storytelling , well done Mr. Roule.
May your gentle soul rest in perfect peace.
Agnes and Andy Careen.

To Eileen and family,
So sorry to hear of Bill's passing. Living across the road from you guys for the past 25 years has been a joy.
As you said " he loved to have a yarn".
Would go over for a simple little thing; and end up turning into a half hour visit. And ya knew it because he would get on a subject about something years ago. He'd start off with " Now you probably remember when...or I remember so and so". He was a man of many stories. Knew just about everything about everything.
My condolances to all the family. May he Rest easy.

My connection to the Roule family is through my connection with Renee, Mr. Roule's youngest daughter. I have had the greatest pleasure to, not only get to know her wonderful children, but also her mom and dad, sisters, brother, their spouses, children, and grandchildren. Coming from a family of 12 myself, I know that extended families can be complex. However, after a couple of Christmas Visits, BBQs, "Webber's Weekends," and other family gatherings, I can see the love and dedication that this family has for one another. One "yarn" with Mr. Roule (Bill) and you can tell where this deep connection comes from. His wife, siblings, their spouses, kids, extended family, have all been so welcoming.. and have made me feel invited.. included, and cherished, and it is an inspiration. Mr. Roule, (Bill) your legacy lives on and your strength and love of family will continue. I will miss you.
