Andrew Joseph Taylor

Andrew was an exceptional manager and mentor whose guidance shaped the careers of those who were lucky enough to be part of the West Fraser/Norbord Group Engineering Team.

Andrew was the person that gave me the opportunity to move to Scotland. For 10 years we worked together, proposing process improvements, planning projects and even conceiving some innovative “AJT” special projects.

Our trips to Inverness were memorable putting the world right over a beer or Talisker whiskey.

Your knowledge and sense of humour will be missed!

We have very happy memories of Andrew from various gatherings of friends and family in and around Stirling over the past 16 years. From celebrating New Year's Eve in Victoria Square in 2010, the many kids birthday parties over the years, the Summer BBQ's and sleep-overs at Claire & Colin's, the Burns Night Ceilidhs and a particularly successful mackerel fishing trip to Loch Fyne :-)

Andrew was a true Kiwi, warm, easy going, great company, loved his rugby and his family, often with a beer or BBQ tongs (or both!) in hand. We will miss his dry sense of humor, his kiwi accent, his big hugs but most of all just spending time with such a lovely guy we were lucky enough to call our friend.

All our love,
Andy, Mel, Daniel & Annabel

Warm, joyful and such a very proud husband & father, is how we will remember Andrew. Never seen without a smile, and always ready to stop for a wee blether. We will treasure the brief years we knew him, I wish they were longer.

Dancing at your 50th. We had a ball!

Almost all of our memories with Andrew include slightly drunken antics. From a boozy nights in the garden listening to Leftfield, large shots of Lemoncillio and veggie chilli and wine after gravity defying tree surgery.

We will miss the Newzealand accent when talking about chops on the BBQ.

You and your lovely family made lockdown fun, bbqs, parties, trips to the beach, all within the rules of course.

Love from
Rebecca, Andrew, Thomas and Frankie.

We have such fond memories of our wonderful friend, Andrew. We’re remembering all the good times we had together: our holidays in Wales, our holiday in the Scottish Borders, barbecues in each other’s gardens, and many other get togethers. Andrew’s generosity and sense of humour will be sorely missed by us all. Cath, David, Emily, Matthew and Finlay xxx
