Junice Taylor Obituary

Junice “June” May (Bogert) Taylor, 91, of Montrose St., passed peacefully as she had hoped, in the presence of her dear sister-in-law, Mary Bogert, and niece, Ellen, on December 30, 2018. Born in Bayonne, NJ, she was a daughter of Filmore and Nellie (Bumpass) Bogert and the widow of John C. Taylor Jr. She retired as an inspector at Digital Equipment Corporation and was a devoted member of St. John’s Congregational Church. She was well known for her homemade cookies, cakes, BBQ ribs, and the best gravy to ever cross your lips. She leaves a daughter, Vivian Walker Duncan of Springfield; a step-daughter Linda (and Hardrick) Crawford; and a host of other family members and friends. The calling hour is 11-12 a.m. Wednesday at St. John’s Congregational Church “Legacy” Building, followed by funeral services at noon. Harrell Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.

Dear Mrs. Taylor,

I did not have the honor of knowing you in life, but the Scriptures say a tree may be known by its fruit. I have had the joy and blessing of knowing your daughter Vivian. If Vivian represents even a tenth of the loving-kindness, care, generosity, and warmth you manifested in your time in this world, then surely you were an overflowing cup, and all who had the good fortune to receive even a little taste, were greatly enriched. By God's Grace, I hope to meet you in the future dear one. Rest In Peace.
