I am shocked to hear that Don has passed away. I was just talking about him over dinner with my husband tonight. We became friends with him watching the Bengals games on Sundays at Duffy's in Deerfield Beach. He was living in Lighthouse Point at that time. He would always join us for a while when the game was on. We were avid fans of Giovani Bernard (who we have known since he was a baby) and loved watching the Bengals play. Don always spoke so highly of his wife and his children & grandchildren. He was such a good guy. I know that he is in a wonderful place right now and hope that all of you who held him so dear know that he loved you and was so very proud of you! Heaven has added a truly wonderful angel!

Don't was always in a great mood when you saw him. A really nice high school pal from Belmont '69. Sad to hear of his passing. God bless Don and his family
you are in my prayers

Don was the best! He and I attended elementary through college together, played baseball, and shared many great times. When I think of a good guy and great person, Don Taylor is that man. He will be missed by everyone who knew him.
