In loving memory of
Gary Wayne Taylor, Sr
June 1, 1947 - April 7, 2020
It is with great sadness to announce heaven received another angel on April 7, 2020. Gary Wayne Taylor, Sr., age 72, was taken from his family too soon. He was involved in a tragic
motorcycle accident that claimed his life at approx. 5pm while riding his Harley with his family and friends on a beautiful sunny day. He was loving husband, son, brother and father to 5 boys
and 3 girls who all miss him dearly.
Gary is survived by his mother Betty Taylor, brother Donnie Taylor, sister Linda Pesek, wife Roberta Taylor and children Matt Taylor (Shannon), Michael Taylor (Shannon), Gary Taylor Jr
(Tiffany), Kimberly Foskett (Jeff), Brian Poe and Kevin Poe. He was predeceased by his father Eldon Avery Taylor, brother Eldon Dean Taylor, daughters Rebecca Hardin and Julie Jones,
granddaughter Jessica Hardin, grandson Daniel Jones and great grandson Elliott Poe, grandparents Lloyd & Sylvia Taylor and Fred & Matilda Landers, brother-in-law Donald Brown as well as numerous aunts, uncles and cousins. He had many grandchildren, nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins who miss him dearly.
He was a retired truck driver who loved to turn wrenches on and ride his Harley. His passion was riding motorcycles with his friends and family in the open roads, feeling the wind in his
face. Gary was also a long time Eagle rider and member. He was a great family man that everyone could count on. When he was not riding he was spending time with his beloved wife,
children and grandchildren.
The family appreciates your support and will announce a celebration of life (on social media) at a later date. Please give the family time to grieve and take care of things at this time.
