At the age of 16, he was hired by the Royal Bank of Canada as a junior clerk at its branch in Welland, Ontario. In January, 1916 he
resigned from his position as accountant at the branch in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and enlisted in the Canadian Artillery as an ammunition driver. He saw action in all the major engagements of the Canadian Expeditionary Force in France and Belgium from October 1916 until the end of the
First World War. Following his return to Canada in May 1919, he rejoined the bank and remained there until his retirement. By that time, the Royal Bank of Canada had become one of the largest banks in
the world, with Hesler serving in various executive positions including General Inspector, Secretary of the Bank, and head of its extensive foreign operations. He died at Montreal in 1982, survived by his wife Edith Aimée Gravel, his son William
Hesler, and two grandsons.
William Hesler is the author of “Muleskinner: the European War of a Niagara Artilleryman”, published in 2010. He lives in Montreal.lihat lebih sedikit
