William Pulley Obituary

Visit the Anderson & Sons Mortuary American Fork Chapel website to view the full obituary.

William (Bill) Rolland Pulley, age 82, of American Fork, Utah, passed away peacefully surrounded by family on March 7, 2026. He was born on September 29, 1943, and lived a life marked by hard work, dedication to family, and a love for the outdoors.

Bill spent his early years working as an auto body technician at Gene Harvey Chevrolet. He later worked as a painter and a toxic chemical handler at Tooele Army Depot, and later EG&G. Known for his skill and generosity, he painted and repaired countless vehicles for family members and friends over the years. He took pride in his craft and was always willing to lend a helping hand to those who needed it, mostly to his children, who needed it a lot.

He was also incredibly handy and took great pride in working on his home of 58 years, completing multiple additions and improvements over the decades. Bill was always there to help his children with their own homes as well-whether it was fixing, remodeling, or tackling whatever project needed to be done. If something needed to be repaired, he was the one everyone called.

Outside of work, Bill enjoyed spending time in nature. He loved hunting and fishing and had a special interest in metal detecting, always hopeful of uncovering a hidden piece of treasure. These hobbies brought him many peaceful hours, and time shared with loved ones.

William was a devoted member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. His faith was an important part of his life and guided the way he cared for his family and community.

He is preceded in death by his parents William T. and Wanda Pulley and his sister Jeanette. He is survived by his loving wife, Tana Pulley; his sons, Clint Pulley, Kevin Pulley, and Greg Pulley; and nine cherished grandchildren. He will be remembered for his quiet strength, generosity, and the love he had for his family.

Funeral services will be held at Anderson & Son's Mortuary in American Fork, Utah, on Monday, March 16 th at 11:00 am.

William will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who knew him.
