September 10, 1939 – July 15, 2024
William Edward Taylor, II, 84, of Wilton Manors, Florida passed away peacefully on July 15, 2024 at Williamsburg Landings.
Bill was an affectionate, dedicated and hardworking man who truly loved life; loving father, husband and friend.
He was born in Pittsburgh, PA to the late Catherine & William. He was a graduate of Westview High School in Pittsburg. He and his twin brother Jim owned and operated WE Taylor Maintenance for 67 years and worked until age 83.
Most of all he loved to travel. He and his Southland Playboy Motorcycle Group have been all over the United States and even flew their bikes to Europe. He would talk to anyone and everyone – he never knew a stranger! One of his claims to fame was the Christmas Display that he and Jim worked diligently on for over 25 years and brought joy to so many people.
