Willie Robertson


It is with a heavy heart and great sadness that we must bring you news that Willie Robertson, co-founder of Robertson Taylor insurance brokers, has died after a determined fight against his recentlly diagnosed cancer. Willie passed away on Saturday the 9th July and his wife Angie and family were with him. Bob Taylor, who with Ian France, was his partner and friend for in excess of 40 years, said "to say that he will leave a gap in our lives is truly an understatement. Willie was a prolific producer of business and a tough and challenging partner throughout our long and incredibly successful relationship. The three of us along with help from many of you guys built what we now know as Robertson Taylor. Over the years he made many life-long friends who have been in regular contact with his family and with myself over the last few weeks. The support has been overwhelming coming from all across the world."


Willie was a true legend from the live music industry, and both at work and at play was a charming, considerate, entertaining and hardworking friend, a most excellent host, and a valued colleague who will be so very much missed by so many.
