Tanner Kent Bills

April 18, 1987 — July 14, 2022

In Loving Memory of Tanner Kent Bills

Tanner was born April 18th, 1987 and sadly left us July 14th, 2022. He was 35 years old. He resided in Nevada, Texas. Tanner was born in Garland, Texas to his parents, Tony Kent Bills and Tanja Renee Hall.

He was blessed with a close and very loving family. Tanner married his soulmate, Brandy Woolman on January 28th, 2014. Tanner and Brandy created two beautiful boys, Tanner "Kash", 11, and Brody Mac, 9. In addition, Jacob Woolman, age 19 is his nephew, although was indeed his chosen son. He loved him dearly.

Tanner was a giver at heart. He helped everyone, in every capacity. Tanner was a problem solver and fixed anything he came to know for others, no matter the time it took. Tanner could build and create anything he set his mind to! He loved the outdoors. He loved to camp and rock climb, so much that he built one at his home for all to use and taught his sons how to climb. He showed his sons the natural beauty of numerous states. He loved music and sharing his gift of music throughout his life to all. He built his own instruments and played them with passion. He was an innovative man, a passionate husband, father, brother, son, uncle, cousin, nephew, grandson and unwavering friend to many.

In addition to his parents, Tony Bills and Tanja Hall Duncan, and Lisa Ticheli Bills, and Mike Duncan, he is survived by his grandparents, Jim and Margaret Hall; his sister, Tara Bills-Tapp and brother-in-law, Matthew Tapp; stepsisters Christine Smith and Autumn Duncan; stepbrother Justin Duncan; close cousins Dylan and Jacob Hall; his nephews, Logan and Levi Tapp, and Everett Smith; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and other relatives and friends who loved Tanner very much.

Although Tanner's life ended before we were ready, the time he spent in our lives was full of love. Tanner was a privilege to know and love and made an impression of everyone he met.

We want to honor his love of life with a memorable farewell where all emotions are welcomed. He would have wanted us together, to be real, and raw, while celebrating all that was Tanner.
