OKOTOKS, ALTA. Okotoks mayor Bill Robertson will be laid to rest Saturday after he died earlier this month following a battle with cancer. Robertson, who died July 7, was first elected to town council in 1995. He became mayor in 2010. During his tenure, he witnessed Okotoks grow from fewer than 10,000 people to nearly 30,000. The public service began at 1 p.m, at the Foothills Centennial Centre, with a maximum capacity of 450 and overflow seating at the adjacent Pason Centennial Arenas of up to 1,000. Physical distancing was in effect at the wishes of the family. Close friend and town councillor Ed Sands says he was devasted by Robertson s death but reflected on their time together on council that spanned about two decades.
