Taylor Wheeler

Taylor Austin Wheeler, also known as Tater Bug, age 12, was born in West Jordan, Utah on August 6, 2001. He was called to heaven and granted his angel wings on November 15, 2013. Taylor lived in both Utah and California. He was a student at Copper Mountain Middle School.
He loved spending time with his family and friends. He enjoyed playing games, music, sleeping late, cooking (especially his secret recipe for bbq sauce) and reading stories. He loved the colors red and green and listening to the sounds of children especially their laughter which would make him smile. His gentle smile could melt the hearts of those around him. He always had a hug and kind words for everyone.
With Taylors’s passing we remind others that his life is one to be celebrated. Although we will miss him every day, especially his perfect hugs and contagious smile, he will forever remain in our hearts.
Taylor is survived by his loving parents, Charle’ Meier and step father Jeremy of Magna, Chris Wheeler and stepmother Chrystal of Herriman, brothers Kyle and Dylan, sisters Trysten, Kendyll and Ariyl, and step sisters Taylor Nicole and Kahla. Taylor is also survived by grandparents Tracy Meier, Valerie Wheeler, and Danny Lewis, aunts and uncles Danielle and Annise Wheeler, Leslie and Joey Zimmerman, Michaela D’Astoli and God Parents GT and Curtis Scharf. Taylor also has many cousins who are missing him so very, very much already and will have him forever in their hearts. He was predeceased by his Great Grandmother Sharon Meier (Bubby), Grandfather Kevin Wheeler and Joe Lambert (Papa).
