Sonny Ray Taylor of Casper, WY, died unexpectedly on May 31st, 2024, at the age of 45.
He was born on April 12th, 1979, in Reno, NV, but grew up in Casper, WY.
Sonny’s greatest joy in life was being a father to his three children. If there is anything he is most proud of in this world it was becoming a father to them. His children were his whole world. Sonny was an avid reader and was referred to as “the walking encyclopedia” because he seemed to know everything about everything. He was witty and always a jokester. He loved to make inappropriate jokes and pick on everyone he encountered, especially his siblings.
Sonny was a ray of sunshine; he radiated happiness and had a heart of gold. He truly enjoyed the simple things in life like spending time with his friends and family, traveling, capturing the sunrise and sunset, thunderstorms, making people laugh, and riding his motorcycle, just to name a few.
Sonny was a one-of-a-kind son, brother, father, uncle, and friend. His personality brought warmth and joy to everyone he encountered, and his passing will be mourned deeply by everyone who knew and loved him. Sonny’s memory will remain in the hearts of his family, friends, and all those who were honored to have had the privilege of knowing him. His legacy will live on for generations to come, inspiring those around him with his kindheartedness, generosity, and unforgettable spirit.
Sonny’s unexpected passing comes as a shock to his family, friends, and loved ones, who are still reeling at the loss. He lived a vibrant life and still had so much ahead of him. He was taken far too soon.
Sonny is survived by his three children, Ashiss and Elianna Taylor and Evan Remillong; Granddaughter Victoria; Mother Robin Noonan; Sisters Sharon (T.J.) Burrer, Sarah (Dean) Kludy, Trisha (Colten) Harns; and Brother Cody Noonan; Nephews Seth, Isaac, Matthew, and Hendrix; and Nieces Tykiera, Katelynn, Kyah, and Madelynn.
He was preceded in death by his Dad, Thomas Noonan II; Niece Ava Burrer; and many other family members.
