William (Bill) Peden

24th September 1968 – 17th March 2002​

An exceptionally talented and loving man, brimming with fierce intelligence and a vivid feel for all life’s wonders, Bill enhanced the lives of every person who crossed his path. Most often recalled as the guy on the dance floor with a smile for everyone, Bill radiated energy through his inspiring words, lust for life and zest for fun.

On a Wednesday night, upon return from an overseas trip, Bill’s flatmates found that he was not at home, concern soon turned to worry when after contacting his work; they were informed of his absence that week. Alarmed by this extremely unusual behaviour from the hard-working and dedicated man they knew, Bill’s flatmates rang around until they could determine that Bill had been to Arcadia, a music festival in Victoria.

Contacting his parents with the information gathered, Bill’s friends went to the police to file a missing person’s report and within an hour the search for Bill had begun, when darkness fell the search was suspended over night and the next morning Bill's body was found roughly 500 metres from the dance floor. It appeared that Bill had wandered off at dusk up steep incline in a forested area and on the way down he slipped and fell - likely fatally injuring himself.

Zany philosopher, talented software engineer, kind-hearted friend and generous soul, Bill exuded childlike innocence, his mischievous nature infectious, free-thinking and strong minded, articulate and daring, Bill touched the lives of many, the brilliance of Bill will continue to touch others through the recollections of his friends.


R.I.P ~Bill – your memory lives on in the hearts of all who knew you and your light shines on to enrich the lives of those who were not so lucky.

Even to this day when I see a bald guy from behind at a party my first automatic reaction is to think it's bill, because seeing bill was such a normal part of being out. :(
