William Ross Cowell, a lifelong resident of High Prairie, passed away on April 20, 2026, in the High Prairie Health Complex at the age of 65 years.
He had a short but hard fight with cancer.
A heartfelt thank you to the doctors, nurses and staff at the hospital who helped Bill in his time of need.
Bill was a lifelong resident and longtime farmer in the High Prairie area. He loved time with family and friends and to be outdoors. Some of his favourite activities were farm work, playing hockey, sitting around a “large’ campfire, snowmobiling or just driving around the neighbourhood looking at the crops in his side-by-side.
Bill leaves behind his children (Ross and Billie) and grandchild (Willamena) as well as family and long-time friends. He was loved and will be missed.
His Celebration of Life to share memories and stories will be held at the family farm on July 25, 2026.
If you so wish, donations to the cancer society would be appreciated.
