The friends family of Bill Meyer Jr., long time lawyer, Taylorville Alderman and city attorney is preparing for a memorial service to honor Bill’s memory. Long time law partner of Meyer’s Dan Austin, shared some of the different ways that Meyer was involved in the community.

Austin said Meyer was like a father figure to him, and that he learned nearly everything he knows about law from Meyer.

A memorial service and mass for Meyer will be held on Saturday at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Taylorville, with a celebration of life immediately following the mass at Angelos Pizza in Taylorville until 5pm. All friends and former colleagues are invited to both celebrations.
