William Francis Taylor Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on April 20, 2026 we had to say goodbye to William Francis Taylor of Santa Rosa, California. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

In the sacred silence of farewell, William is released into the embrace of eternity, knowing that his light will continue to shine brightly in the tapestry of the lives of his loved ones. And as his memory is carried forward, may comfort be found in the knowledge that love is eternal, and that William's spirit lives on in the beauty that surrounds us.

He was predeceased by: his parents, Helen Mary Taylor (Purser) and John Joseph Taylor; his brother John P. Taylor (Jack); and his nephew John F. Taylor. He is survived by: Kathy Strachan (Alan), Jessica Lind (Don), Carole Galeazzi (Gary), Ken Bizzell, Dona Moberly and Jim Sullivan.

His art was virtually unseen until the Sebastopol Center for the Arts, supported by RiskPress Foundation, gave him a solo exhibition in 2017.
