Hawaii Five-0 Actor Taylor Wily Dead at 56
The Hawaii Five-0 family has lost one of its own.
Actor Taylor Wily, who starred as Kamekona on the former CBS series, passed away at the age of 56, the show’s creator Peter M. Lenkov confirmed on Instagram June 20.
“I am devastated,” Lenkov captioned a photo with Wily. “Heartbroken. I’ll post some detailed feelings later. Just too hard right now.”
In a follow up Instagram post, the producer recalled meeting Wily, who appeared on all 10 seasons of the series, before production on the show began in 2010.
“T, as I told you many times, I fell in love with you at the first audition,” he wrote. “You came in with a towel on your head mopping up sweat, and I was smitten. You charmed me into making you a regular… on the show… and in my life. You were family. And I will miss you every day, brother.”
“PS: when we spoke last week, we laughed at how right you were from Day 1,” Lenkov continued. “Five-0 was our dream job. And I was so lucky we got to share that magic together.”
