William "Bill" T.M. Taylor

William “Bill” T.M. Taylor, originally from Flushing, NY, passed away peacefully at his home with his loving wife Ausrite by his side. Bill was predeceased by his parents, Paul H. and Mildred E. (Mundy) Taylor.

During his working years, he drove tractor trailer trucks, both over the road and locally. He loved to share stories about the many places he had gone. In retirement, Bill enjoyed watching sports and crime investigation shows, especially “COPS with his grandchildren. He was peculiar about his yardwork, because home was his sanctuary. Bill was seldom seen without his dog Thadeus and never missed a cookout with his family.

He also leaves his brother Paul Taylor and his wife Judy, his sisters, Nancy Harrow and Elizabeth Bellucci and her husband Paul and many nieces and nephews.
