TAYLOR William John (Bill, Wiggy, Willygog, Willie and Jackiebird)
Passed away suddenly in the Berri Hospital on August 25th, 2026.
Aged 66 years.
Cherished husband and soul mate of Sharon.
Loved father of Kiah, Cassie, Tamara, Brandon and fur baby Terra.
Loved and adored grandfather of Lloyde, Stephanie, Eilidh, Taleah, Brock, Elijah and Vivien.
Loved brother of Bryan, Derryl, Rosemary (dec), Jo and Dave.
Bill was a great man who lived life with humour, warmth and generosity. He loved his dad jokes, bringing laughter wherever he went, and he found his forever home and a beautiful life with Sharon in the Riverland.
A true man of many trades, Bill was at his happiest in his shed, surrounded by tools, ideas and projects, building, creating and inventing new things with pride and imagination.
His studio was another special place where he could truly be himself, doing what he loved most - playing music, writing songs and letting his creativity shine. He had a wonderful sense of curiosity and excitement, especially when opening his latest online purchases, just like a kid at Christmas.
He also loved to chill in his self-built man cave with all his loved ones and chat over a beer. Bill believed he was here to make people laugh and smile, and that is exactly what he did. His quick humour and cheeky dad jokes could have everyone laughing one minute and rolling their eyes the next - usually at the same time.
He will be truly missed by everyone who knew him, but his spirit, laughter and the many memories he created will continue to live on in the hearts of all who loved him.

Family and friends of Bill are respectfully invited to attend a celebration of his life at the Berri Hotel on Saturday September 12th, 2026 at 1.00pm.
