Obituary
FLEURY, Dr. William Douglas…
Passed unexpectedly with family by his side on Saturday, September 9, 2023 at Victoria Hospital, London, Ontario in his 45th year. Lovingly known by so many as ‘Dr. Will’ the Veterinarian of the Byron Animal Clinic and as the beloved husband and soul mate of Andrea Fleury (nee Tierney). Proud Dada of two young sons Lincoln, age 7 and Evan Fleury, age 5. Cherished son of Paul and Susan Fleury, brother of Jessica Kathleen and brother-in-law of Stephane Martel, all of London. Loved grandson of Sophie Jackson of Sarnia. Son-in-law of Mike and Jean Tierney of Woodstock and brother-in-law Darren Tierney of Montreal. Loving uncle of Ashlyn and Bryson Martel and many other supportive aunts, uncles and cousins.
Dr. Will graduated from Western University with an Honours Degree in Biology. He thereafter was accepted into, and graduated from, the Ontario Veterinary College (University of Guelph – 2005). He worked at a variety of animal clinics in the London area until he became the owner and operator of the Byron Animal Clinic in 2013. As this all evolved, Will said he felt truly blessed to have, “the best job in the world in one of the best cities in Canada”. Noteworthy also – under his leadership, his clinic on occasion was voted the ‘Best’ Veterinary Clinic in London. When this was awarded, he could not have been more proud. His staff also stood tall when this happened as they always were so ‘reliable and professional’. Will often remarked that he was so fortunate to be associated with such excellent staff.
Will was 6’ 5” tall. He loved basketball and excelled at it – particularly in high school. His favourite team – the Toronto Raptors. His all time idol – Michael Jordan.
Dr. Will’s working style was to meet his dog patients where they were – on the floor – despite his height. He was routinely known for sitting cross-legged while conducting his examinations. So many enjoyed the connection he always made and more importantly marveled at his talent, knowledge, and skill. Dr. Will was a gentle giant who gave a voice to his voiceless animal patients and truly was a hero.
All will miss Dr. Will but nobody more so than his immediate family, relatives and loved ones.
Cremation has taken place. A date for a Celebration of Will’s life will be announced in the near future. Interment will be in Woodland Cemetery, London – a place where Dr. Will and his family used to go to observe the many deer and other wildlife.
In lieu of flowers, please consider contributing to a GoFundMe campaign to raise funds for the two surviving children.
Arrangements entrusted to A. Millard George Funeral Home, 519-433-5184. On-line condolences, memories and photographs may be shared at www.amgfh.com

What a tremendous loss for family, friends & colleagues. He will be greatly missed by all the lives he touched who benefited from his love, talents & enthusiastic spirit.
Words cannot describe the absolute sadness I feel for everyone who was lucky enough to know or have ever met Dr. Will. I personally worked for him at Byron Animal Clinic for 3 years until I relocated up North. It was still, to this day, the best job I ever had. I was so proud to call Will my boss. He was the kindest man to work for and if you were lucky enough to be his client, you knew you were always in great hands. His gentle spirit will live on with every Raptors game to come. My heart goes out to his family and his current staff at BAC. I am so grateful for my visit to the clinic last month where I saw Will for what I never imagined to be the last time where he of course boasted about his loving sons. He will be truly missed by all, including myself.
With love,
Candice
Dr. Will will forever be remembered by my family as the most kind, caring and compassionate vet that ever cared for our dog Kally. Thinking of his family and colleagues at this difficult time.
I’m so very very sorry for your loss. I’ve known Will through my many vet visits over 2 decades and he was always a kind soul. He will be so greatly missed.
Being Billy’s (to me), wayward cousin of the same age, with very different lifestyles (mine questionable, his far less), we battled verbally as kids, regularly trading insults that today would be hilarious to reminisce over.
Even though we had our differences, I was always (secretly) amazed at his intellect for one (I think he wrote a novel in grade 11), and his athletic ability in basketball. As he may as well have been ten feet tall, he was an obvious asset to his basketball teams, and I recall him routinely shooting hoops with his buddies after school, in North Bay. This likely is what directed his fashion sense back then, as I can’t remember him not wearing scrub pants (a trend of the era, but little did we know, also a testing-out of his career ensemble) coupled with a NBA jersey!
So, when I returned to BC after high school, I was never surprised to hear of how good a vet he was, or how the Byron Clinic, was recognized as being top notch. He was brilliant, a team player, and a good friend by all accounts.
We extend our deepest condolences to my second family. Our hearts are broken for you all, and for Andrea, their beautiful boys and all whose lives he touched.
With much love, Monica and Mike.
I am shocked and saddened to hear of Dr Will’s passing. We have only known him a very short time as our dog Snowball’s vet but he left a big impression. My heart goes out to his family and his work family at Byron Animal Clinic. Our condolences
Dr. Will was one of the kindest and most gentle human beings I’ve ever met. He took care of my cats for the past decade, always treating them with the utmost care and explaining their health, challenges, and solutions to me with patience and understanding. What an incredible loss to the London community and to his beautiful family. My heart is with all those who love him.
You were so kind to us and provided such incredible care to our fur babies Dallas and Rockley. Words fail as we try to express how much we will all miss you. The world has lost a gentle giant with an incredible heart. Melody, Mark, Rockley and family.
Our sincere condolences to the clinic staff and family. This was quite a shock to hear of his passing. Dr. Will was a wonderful caring vet to our furry friends. He will be greatly missed.
He will be missed. He was an amazing doctor and a caring man. He always listened to you and helped in any way he could. He was the best! My condolences to his family. He often mentioned you during visits.
I am stunned to hear of Will’s passing. What an incredible human. The world needs so many more people like Will. We have been clients at Byron Animal Clinic since we moved to London and we stayed because of the staff and most importantly because of Will. We will never forget his incredibly kind and gentle nature.
Dr. Will was a wonderfully compassionate clinician who truly understood his patient’s needs. Having a very nervous rescue, it was amazing to see him on the floor and making our dog…relaxed and comfortable. My deepest condolences to his immediate and extended family. Rest in Peace
I am shocked and saddened to hear of Dr. Will’s passing. He was kind, thoughtful and very caring. Dr. Will has been my vet for several years and cared for many of my dogs. He will be truly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
Our sincere condolences to his family and friends. So sad to read about Dr. Will. Our animals loved him and you could tell he loved them back. Such a loss for his family, coworkers and all. He will be much missed.
Andrea, I am so sorry to hear of Will’s passing. Sending prayers for you and your family. My sincere condolences on your loss.

Dear Paul, Susan, Andrea, Lincoln, Evan, and family,
I had the incredible pleasure of having my fur babies looked after by Dr. Will before moving out of the area. Dr. Will was such a kind, caring man with a special and gentle manner that made both pets and people comfortable and well cared for. And yes, he always got down on the floor to offer an enthusiastic hello to our girls.
I also had the pleasure of working with Dr. Will’s dad, Paul. He and Sue were always proud and loving parents. You are in my thoughts.
My heart is breaking for all of you and for all that you have lost. Reading the obituary and Andrea’s post, you are all clearly finding solace in the love that you share with each other and that Dr. Will brought to your lives. Take care.
We are very sorry to hear about Dr. Fleury’s death. Our pets thrived under his care and compassion and he will be missed. Our heart goes out to his family and his co-workers sending much love and strength as they navigate this devastating loss.

My heart goes out to all his family, friends, and the staff at Byron Animal Clinic. I’m so sorry.
May he rest in peace.
I’m so sorry to hear this sad, tragic news. Dr. Will took wonderful care of our two family pets and was so kind, sensitive and reassuring to any of our concerns as pet owners. We are so sorry for your loss.
To all that knew and loved Dr.Will, we express our most sincere condolances. We were blessed to have him as our vet. He showed love and compassion to our furry family members. This loss leaves a huge hole, we will not forget your Dr. Will.
We are saddened to hear of the passing of Dr. Wil. Dr. Wil has taken care of our dog Twix for many years, and always made her feel at ease. He will forever be remembered as the most kind, caring and compassionate vet.
Our sincere condolences to his family and to the clinic staff.
Dr. Will only met us a short time ago and we were drawn to his gentle approach with our puppy. We understand why there have only be good kinds words from his many clients. We are deeply shocked and saddened to hear of his passing. Our deepest condolences to his family.
Dr Will was an incredibly kind soul and we are so saddened to hear that he has passed away. We will remember his wonderful spirit and the gentle, compassionate care he showed our dogs in the years we’ve had them as patients at Byron Animal Clinic. He was such a comfort to my family when our eldest dog passed away in January and I’ll always remember this. May his spirit be at peace and never forgotten. Deepest sympathies to Dr. Will’s family and his team at the clinic.
Our deepest condolences to Dr Wills family, friends and the staff at the Byron Animal Clinic. Dr Will took care of our fur baby, Emma, from the time she was a puppy until she left us in January. Dr Will was so compassionate, empathetic, understanding and knowledgeable every time we saw him. He always took the time to explain and answer all our questions. He will be dearly missed by many. Prayers to his family.
I am truly shocked and saddened to learn of Dr Will’s passing. I send my condolences to the staff, and to family and friends. What a tragedy for the little boys, as well as the furry family and his life partner. He was the kindest vet we have ever met, and I travel an hour to go to the Clinic. Heartfelt sympathy and prayers for those affected.
Dear Paul and Susan. My deepest condolences on the passing of your son. Despite our homes being only a stones throw away those many years ago, I never met him. But reading the tributes I can only imagine how proud you must have been as parents.
May his spirit always be with you.
Dr. Will was my late and current cats vet. He stood by us through illnesses and difficult decisions and always put the care and comfort of his patients first. He will be greatly missed by all of us.
My heart goes out to his family. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Our dog and cats have been patients at the Byron animal clinic for 9 years. In that time we have taken our loved ones to Dr Fleury and colleagues with every confidence that they would be cared for with compassion and expertise. Dr Fleury embodied what one wants and hopes for in a vet. He will be greatly missed.
So sorry, and sending my condolences to you all, on Dr Will’s passing. I knew Will only as a colleague, but I believe he was a sensitive soul. I know his loss will be felt beyond words.
Dr. Will was the most compassionate, kind, empathetic professional I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He was truly special in every way. His sweet disposition with our pets over the years will be missed.
Our condolences to his family, colleagues and patients during this incredibly sad time.
I am so very sorry. Dr. Will was a wonderful vet and always so kind to me as well as my cats. I knew he truly cared about us. I will miss him very much. Dr. Will, thank you for everything.
I am so sorry to hear this news. Dr. Will was AMAZING !!!! So good to our furry babies and absolutely amazing with my kids as we lost our cats and dog. Dr. Will was so compassionate and always took the extra time to chat with my kids when they were younger.
He definitely will be missed !
Prayers and lots of hugs to his precious family.

Andrea,Lincoln,Evan and family. There are no words that will take the pain. Please rely on your family friends and amazing memories to get you through this difficult time. Condolences and hugs to you.

I send my sincere condolences during this time of sorrow. The Bible promises that your loved one will live again on a beautiful paradise earth when death will be no more. (John 5:28, 29; Revelation 21:4)
My sincere condolences to all of Dr. Will’s family, friends, staff and the pets he so lovingly cared for. He has been the most incredible, kind, humble and sweet Vet to my pups for 10 years. Just two weeks ago he sat down on the floor with my 10 year old Boxer and gave him the best care possible with compassion and genuine love. A few years ago I came upon a Deer hit by a car on Hyde Park Road. Luckily enough Dr. Will was on his lunch break, drive by and immediately pulled over when he saw us struggling to help the deer. He went back to the office and got meds to calm the deer down until SaltHaven arrived. This is just one more testament to what a wonderful man he was and his dedication and love for all animals. I can’t thank him enough for always being calm and reassuring when I was stressed about the health of my pups. He will be fondly remembered and dearly missed.
We are so sorry to hear this very sad news. Dr. Will (and Byron Animal Clinic) is whom we’ve entrusted for many years with our beloved rescues.
He was always so kind and patient. He will be missed. Our condolences to his family, friends and his colleagues.
Sending lots of love to the family of Dr. Will & the staff at BAC. We can’t say enough great things about Dr. Will! He was such an incredible vet to our beloved yorkie Mya and always so kind and patient to us during her health complications. We’re so glad we also got the opportunity to have him as our recent fur babies vet as well. Anytime someone asked us where to take their pets in need we immediately recommend Dr.Will and his clinic, you couldn’t find a more caring and compassionate veterinarian to help you with all your pets needs. We know how dearly he will be missed by all the lives he touched!
The DeCosta family
Dr. Will was our vet for many years, and I will always fondly remember his affection and dedication to his furry patients. He was there for me when we put our old boy down earlier this year and showed so much kindness and empathy on one of the hardest days for me and my husband. He made such a difference for us and I am so glad we got to have him look after our pups for the time that we did. I’m so so sorry to hear of his passing and am keeping his family in my thoughts.
We were in the clinic today and had not heard of Dr Will’s passing; we would have expressed condolences to the staff, who must be grieving. He was a lovely man and we will really miss him. To his family, we are very sorry for your loss.
Dr. Will had such a kind, caring heart. We left our old vet, unsatisfied with the cold, “businesslike” manner that our loved pets were being handled. Dr Will was a welcome loving replacement. He was also so helpful when a stray with her litter of six kittens showed up at our front door, helping curb the extended cost of taking care of these little ones until new homes could be found for five of the babies. I am at a loss. He will be sorely missed.
Our deepest condolences to the family and loved ones of Dr. Will.
He will be greatly missed.
Our deepest condolences to the family and loved ones of Dr. Will.
He will be greatly missed.
Dr. Will was our pets’ vet when we lived in Byron, up until just a few years ago. He was a gentle giant, a caring, thoughtful professional and we always felt that our cats were in good hands with him. I’m just devastated for his family and everyone who knew and loved him.
We are so sad to learn of Dr. Will’s passing. His kindness and huge heart were always there, he sat with us. We are so very sorry for this terrible loss and send our sincere condolences to his family and friends
Our deepest condolences to Dr Will’s family. We only knew Dr Will as our much loved vet but we know how much he adored his furry clients and was devoted to his family, always talking lovingly and happily about his wife and children. We will remember him always. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Dr. Will took care of our beloved Golden Retriever Linus for 14 years; he adored Dr. Will and would pull us excitedly to every appointment at his wonderful clinic. Dr. Will was so gentle, kind, and compassionate, and most recently welcomed our newly adopted puppy Lorenzo, and made him feel so welcome and at ease.
Deepest condolences to his family and everyone in the B.A.C. community (both two and four-legged); we will miss him so much.
I am deeply saddened by this news. We recently lost my first baby Charlie unexpectedly which dr will cared for and was so good with. I remember bringing Charlie in for the first time and he introduced Charlie to other pets to socialize. I was blown away in that moment by his passion and skill. I am greatly sorry for the loss of such an extraordinary human. My condolences to the family and all who knew will. He will be so missed
Such sad news. Thank you, Dr. Will for taking such good care of our cats over the last 10 years. You were a warm, compassionate and brilliant vet. My thoughts are with your family and the team at Byron Clinic.
I did not know Dr. Will, but I wish I had. Peace, love and light to his family and his staff.
I remember Will fondly from school. He was two years ahead of me, and was always kind. Sending sincere condolences to his family; I’m
So sorry for your loss.
I am so very unhappy when I heard the news. I adored Dr, Will and loved the care he gave my dogs, He was a wonderful person and the greatest vet we have ever met. You are forever in our minds and Bert misses him very much. Sue Pearen.Brian Pearen.Max and Bert.

Mrs. Fleury, my heart breaks for you and your two sons.
Muchlove to you -grace and much peace also.
I loved big Willie, as I called him. Thankfully I got one year to be his teammate our last year at Wifdifield. I know know much he loved you and your boys and I say that from 2,000 miles away.
Praying for your entire family.
Words cannot express our sentiments properly –
Ricky, Tenisha and Abigail Earle
Dear Andrea
So sorry to hear this news my heart is with you and the boys!
Fay and Family
Dr. Will will be remembered by our family for his kind hearted care for our 3 furry babies. Yes, he checked in with our dogs at their level sitting on the floor with them. We will always treasure the connection he made with each of them, with us and our kids too. Our hearts go out to Will’s family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you during this devastating time. I have many wonderful childhood memories with the Fleury family. Billy’s laughter and playfulness will always be remembered. Sending our sincere condolences and heartfelt love your way. Sincerely, (Penny and Jim’s daughter) Jennifer. ??
So very saddened to hear of this loss. Thank you for everything you did for all the animals who crossed your path. My heart truly hurts over this. Namaste.
I had the pleasure of first meeting Dr. Will years ago during a rotation at Byron AC while I was in veterinary school. He was a very kind, caring and gentle man, and he will be deeply missed by the London veterinary community.
My heart goes out to his family during this incredibly difficult time.
Oh…we are so sorry. We absolutely loved Dr Will. He was so kind and compassionate…he will be missed
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and coworkers
Dr. Will was one of those partners a charity always wishes for. Someone who who is passionate, giving and kind. Someone who will take a last minute request, and someone who you know you can call. Someone who will have your back and someone who will be willing to advocate for change when change is needed. Dr. Will was all this, and so much more.
Dr. Will was a special partner to Humane Society London & Middlesex and a special person to be around.
My most sincere condolences to you Andrea, and to Dr. Will’s family and loved ones.
Our family is shocked and saddened of the loss of this wonderful Doctor. He helped us with our dog Sandy for many years and now our new dog Skipper . We loved his big heart and he always took time with our pets and didn’t mind answering our silly questions . He will be missed in the Byron community.
Thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
The Karlson’s
I was shocked to hear of Dr. Will’s passing. He was my vet for many years and always was excited and happy to see my fur family. My condolences to Andrea and the kids on the loss of such an amazing person.
My dog daisy absolutely loved Dr will. And when she had an issue and we didn’t have the funds dr will made sure daisy was taken care of. My family had a joke that daisy just liked to go see Dr will every other week. He will be greatly missed
So very sad and shocked to hear of Dr Will’s passing. He ran a warm and professional clinic and I was always pleased when I picked the right day for my four pets to receive care by him. Sometimes Dr Will seemed rushed (no doubt trying to stay on time) but at our last visit with him two weeks ago he spent extra time chatting about my cat’s problems, even though we were there for a check up with my dog! I really appreciated that. I’m feeling heart broken for his family and wish them the very best for the difficult road ahead.
I am so sorry friends – I am a veterinarian as well just retired. I did not have the pleasure of meeting dr fleury but he sounds like such an incredible person. I wish for a magic wand to bring him back to you
Our deepest condolences to Dr. Will’s family, friends, and his amazing staff at BAC. We will always remember his kindness, patience, compassion and the exceptional care he gave our Murphy for 15 years. Dr. Will was one of a kind and he will truly be missed.
We were so very saddened to hear of Dr. Will’s passing. He had always been so kind and compassionate to our beagle and to us during visits over the past 10 years. Our deepest condolences to his family and his work family at BAC.
To All Fleury Family,
Don’t know how to express how shocked and saddened we are to find out of our cousin/ Dr. Bills passing…
Though we were only acquainted through a few family functions, it’s clear “the Gentle Giant” namesake was very fitting:)
You have clearly and positively left an impactful and notable contribution to your community in many ways, and have paved the way for Andrea, Lincoln, and Evan to do the same in your memory.
Our love, peace and deepest sympathies to all London kin
– David, Maria & Mabel Jackson
Our hearts are broken to hear of the loss of Dr. Will. He was a compassionate veterinarian and human being. We have always felt very grateful to have our little Katie under his exceptional care. She has a rare condition and he did everything he could to help her thrive for the last 7 years since her diagnosis. He was a blessing in our lives. Our deepest condolences to Dr. Will’s family and all of the team at BAC. The world has lost a beautiful treasure.
We all are very sad to read about the passing of Dr. Will. He was an amazing Vet., who always took care of Aurora Luna, pampered her to make her feel that she was in good hands. He will be missed immensely.
Our heartfelt condolences to Dr. Will’s family and the BAC community. We will never forget his compassionate and thoughtful approach when caring for our cat. Sending healing thoughts and prayers x
I am so shocked and saddened to hear of Dr. Will’s sudden passing! He has been our vet for many years and was so empathic when we had to put our beloved feline down. Dr. Will was a big, gentle man with an even bigger heart! My heartfelt condolences go out to his family and all the staff at the Byron AC. He will be truly missed!
Dr. Will was the greatest and kindest vet I have ever had the honour of meeting.
Every living creature has lost a great Champion today.
He took care of my Dogs Chachi and Michael-Henri. They visiting him.
Dr Will was the best !! Such a compassionate man, who never rushed you. He shared about his children’s soccer games and my granddaughters T-ball games. He cared for my dog, Michael Henri who sadly had to go to sleep in June 6. Dr. will waited until I was ready to say goodbye. He spoke the whole time as my baby went to sleep and he said the most beautiful things to my baby. It was like poetry from heaven. he also cared for Chachi, last year Chachi suffered a stroke. He was 15. Dr. will saved him . Chachi lived with my son when he moved out. Chachi turned 16 on July 3. And sadly had to go to sleep on July 10. 2023. Dr. will give Chachi and my son a gift of 11 more months of living. As he put Chachi to sleep, he did the same as he had done for Michael Henry, just the month before. Listening to him as we held our babies for the last time again poetry from heaven flowed from his lips. I just found out today. I am heartbroken for his family, I know how much he love them, and how he love to go to their soccer games. My prayers for his family, friends, coworkers, and pet owners. He will be so sadly missed. I always thought of him as the gentle giant, the same as my son. Both were the same height, but had this beautiful gentleness, compassion, and understanding of what we were going through. And I could feel that he went through it with us as well. God bless your family of Dr Will .
On Aug 23/23, Dr Will helped my son’s cat cross over the rainbow bridge. He handled the situation perfectly and made us all as comfortable as possible. He was the strength that we all turned to in that very sad time. Helping clients day after day like this must have been taxing. To his family, my condolences. You have a wonderful man in your hearts and souls.
he was an animal angel I have seen him cry when my furry friends had to cross the rainbow bridge he always did his very best will be missed by so many
You’ll be greatly missed Will. Hanging out with you and your wonderful family has always been fun for us. You set your boys on a great path in life and they are your proud legacy. You and your entire family are in our prayers.
What dreadful news! We are shocked and saddened to hear of the untimely passing of this wonderful man – a huge loss for his wife & children, fur babies, clinic & staff & all of us, those who stumbled in to his warm and gentle care. He will be missed by many – as is plain to see by the myriad testaments made by those of us who trusted him completely with the care of our precious family members. He’s irreplaceable, but I hope many will try to fill his shoes, so that the neediest will still be cared for. In sadness – the Duffett family
I am so saddened to hear of this heartbreaking news. Dr. Will was always so caring towards our dog, Bentley, and took the time to explain things clearly when we were new pet owners. My heartfelt condolences to all of Will’s family, friends and to those whose lives were made better through his kindness and professionalism.
Andrea, Lincoln and Evan, and also Will’s work family at Byron AC – I am so sorry for your loss. Will was a lovely person and he will be missed by all of his colleagues in the veterinary community.
Condolences,
Fran
Dr.Will, you were such a dedicated, caring, loving and gifted Veterinarian. The very best. Thank you for the special care you gave to my Abby and now Skylar. My heart goes out to your family, work family and all of your fur babies past and present. May you rest in forever peace.
I’m so sorry for your family’s loss; for all the animals who won’t feel his healing touch; and for our Veterinary community as a whole. I didn’t know “Dr. Will” personally. I’m a veterinary nurse in the USA who has known losses to depression in my own family and in my veterinary family. My heart breaks for everyone who will miss him.
It is with great sadness to hear of the passing of Dr. Will. We had the pleasure of experiencing his kindness with our furry four-legged family members. We are grateful for having known such a knowledgeable and kind man.
Our condolences to his family and the amazing staff at the clinic.
Dear Family and Friends.
Offering condolences to you at this time.
Gwen Jeun, DVM
As described in his obituary, Dr Will was indeed a soft-spoken gentle giant. As with many of his little patients, he saw us through the traumatic loss of our beloved cat, who had lung cancer. Safe journey Dr. Will.
Sue and Paul, Very sorry for your loss. Our hearts go out to you. I hope that even though your world is dark, you will see light in all of the memories you had with big Bill.
Jerald and I want to express our sincerest condolences to Will’s parents, Will’s wife and two little boys as well as Jessica on this very sad loss of a son, brother, father, husband and colleague of so many. A beautiful soul has left us! You are all in our prayers. May time and beautiful memories of his being heal your hearts over time. All our love and we share your sadness at this time. May God watch over everyone!
What a very lovely man and an absolutely excellent vet, we will miss his care, my greatest condolences to his family and all of his friends and colleagues
I’m so sorry to hear of Dr. Will’s passing. He really was a kind and gentle man who made my pups feel safe in his presence. Sending blessings to all of his family and friends I can only imagine the void his passing has left. May your memories comfort you.
We are truly saddened to hear of this great loss. Dr. Will always demonstrated incredible knowledge, great compassion, and genuine kindness throughout the many years we entrusted him with the care of our precious “pups.”
Our sincere condolences to Dr. Will’s family, friends, and all of the BAC family.
Such a huge loss and such an extraordinary legacy.
We’ve been driving across the city for many years to go to Byron Animal Clinic because of the staff and Dr. Will. He was a kind man and always so good with our cats. He will be missed by his clients and their furry friends.
Dr. Will was such a gentle soul especially with our animal friends. He was a great vet and took wonderful care of my animals before I moved out of town. My condolences to his wife and children and all who loved him (and I think he was easy to love). His absence will be felt far and wide. Blessings, Dr. Will and thank you.
A kind soul who tended to Reason and Tux through their lives. He will be remembered. Condolences to his family and staff.
Condolences to family and staff from Bob and his furry companions Freya and Petunia. We will miss you.
Dr. Fleury took amazing care of our Taddy and Splinter. When Taddy developed cancer and we knew it was almost time, he teared up with us because he understood the weight of our loss. Because of him, Taddy Mason died in loving arms. I cannot understand the weight of your family’s loss, but I understand that it is a big loss. I am glad to read that he died in loving arms like he ensured so many little creatures did under his care
Dr.Will was a kind and gentle soul with the animals he cared for. Our Bearded Collie Daisy was absolutely terrified of him but he always sat down and offered her liver snacks (which he could never persuade her to take from him). He kindly agreed to come to our home when it was time for our goodbyes as he knew how afraid she was in the office. We were so grateful. He was so kind.
Our deepest condolences go to his wife and two young sons. Dr. Will made a difference and will not be forgotten.
We are so sad to learn of Dr. Fleury’s passing. We send our prayers and sincere condolences to his family and friends.
Sue and Paul, My deepest condolences to you and your family on the loss of your son. My thoughts are with you at this time.
Sue and Paul, I’m m so very sorry for the loss of your son Bill. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this very difficult time. Linda Boufford
Please accept my deepest condolences for the families incredible loss. I was so very sorry to hear about a great man passing. He was the best veterinarian I ever had! I had a 6.5lb Maltese dog, Biscuit. She had a lot of medical issues so much that Dr Will called her a “lemon” dog (and rightly so!). Due to her frequent visits to the clinic I got to know Dr Will and his love for my dog, and all animals. His big stature holding onto my little Biscuit was so endearing. I will truly miss him. My thoughts and heartache are with you.
He was a wonderful vet and human being. And he does have the most amazing staff! He will be missed! My condolences to his wife children and family.
