==Personal life and death==
In addition to the career benefits of working at the new [[University of Waterloo]], the more rural setting of [[Waterloo County]] appealed to Bill and his wife Dorothea.  They bought a house in the nearby village of [[West Montrose, Ontario]] where they enjoyed hiking, spending time in their garden on the Grand River and allowing others to enjoy the beautiful scenery of their property.

They also had an extensive knowledge of all the birds in their garden. Dorothea, an avid potter, was also a keen hiker and Bill organised hiking trips. Even near the end of his life Bill still was an avid walker.<ref name="Hobbs 2004 322"/><ref>{{cite web | title=Bill Tutte | url=http://www-gap.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Obits2/Tutte_Telegraph.html | publisher=Telegraph Group Limited | access-date=21 May 2013 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130927151741/http://www-gap.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Obits2/Tutte_Telegraph.html | archive-date=27 September 2013 | url-status=dead}}</ref> After his wife died in 1994, he moved back to Newmarket (Suffolk), but then returned to Waterloo in 2000, where he died two years later.<ref>{{Citation | last = van der Vat | first = Dan | author-link = Dan van der Vat | title = Obituary: William Tutte | place =London | work = The Guardian | date = 10 May 2002 | url = https://www.theguardian.com/news/2002/may/10/guardianobituaries.obituaries | access-date = 28 April 2013 }}</ref> He is buried in West Montrose United Cemetery.<ref name="uwaterloo.ca"/>
