Vale Thomas Bruce Taylor Respected Honorary Member of ANZROC Victoria

We were advised by his daughter Lea Trafford that Thomas Bruce Taylor (92years) passed away On June 12th 2020.

Tom had been ailing for a few years now but especially since his beloved wife Deirdre passed in April 2019.

Together, they had joined the community at Prom Country House for their final years together.

Prior to that Tom had retired down to Sth Gippsland where he had run cattle with his father in law, on a farm at Waratah Bay/Fish Creek. Together, with a few other retired ANZ fellows and of course his wife Deirdre, he travelled extensively.

Tom had a rich life and contributed to the lives of many.

Our condolences are extended to Tom's family
