A very funny comedian whose character of Julio made the movie Easy Money a classic. So sad to lose Taylor Negron at such an early age.

To the family,
I send my condolences. Loss of a dear one consumes the mind and heart with anxiety. Know that God is hear for you. In Psalms 56:8 the psalmist wrote that God places our tears in his skin bottle. He remembers or pain and looks to comfort us.

Rest in peace, my friend,Taylor.I'll never forget our "Fast times at Mt View Elementary"

January 22, 2015

This was truly an amazing person with so much talent the loss is clearly ours. Prayers fill our hearts and burst forth from our mouths to God asking him to let us remember clearly the love we have for this wonderful person gone from our lives never forgetting the joy we shared experiencing a great and authentic talent. (Hebrews 6:10).

You made the world smile in spite of what was happening all around. Listening to you on "The Moth" brought such a smile to my face, so much so that your laughter and words are ones that I will always carry in my heart. Rest in Peace Taylor, the world will be so empty without you in it.

The world is a little sadder now. Thanks for the laughs Taylor. Rest.

I wanted to add my name to a long list of those who so appreciated Taylor's personality and his talent and I for sure have give a 'ditto' to "Franky's" comments about Taylor's 'Area Rug' routine...My husband Ken and I echoed that routine for several years, throwing our heads back and offering to judge and value our various friends rugs at the drop of a hat....Such a funny, funny man! He was a great talent and brought a lot of joy and laughter to so many of us and that is a true blessing and a legacy to be proud of! God Bless you all as you miss him and mourn his loss. Most Sincerely,
Stephanie at CB&T (formerly Eldorado Bank)

I was so sorry to hear about Taylor's death. He was so nice to rent out his condo in LA to my son for 6 months while he was living in NY. I wish I would have had the honor to know him, but I never did get the chance to meet him. He was a good friend to my son and will be truly missed by him and so many others. RIP Taylor.

Wow - what a funny guy. He played so many great working parts. I look at him and realize - "You don't want carpet, you want an areaaaaa rug!" Especially funny when your wife works as an office manager for a carpet and flooring company for over 25 years...So sad - our condolences to another taken too way too soon.

The entire Negron family has been constantly on our minds since we heard the sad news. We pray that God's Peace will cover each one as Taylor has gone ahead to rest in The Father's arms waiting to be reunited some day with all of his loved ones. Taylor leaves behind many beautiful memories with the many whom he touched. May he be received with open arms in the place of peace where there is no sickness or sorrow. Rod and Lucy, we love your family and share in your grief. With love, Al and Nancy Malouf

I can see that Taylor was not only loved by many but that his heart was the Lord's. It brings peace and hopefully healing to those who love him to know that he is now doing standup for Jesus!

Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. II Corinthians 5:6-8

I had the biggest crush on Taylor back when I was 13 or 14. I had every movie that he'd been in that I could get my hands on, I even had a vhs copy of his HBO special. I'm almost 29 now and his work still delights me. It really broke my heart to hear of his passing and I send my prayers and deepest sympathies to his family. Rest in peace Taylor, I know you'll be teaching the angels how to mug.

Once an artist passes through your life and makes an impact it seems that when they are called by the Lord it just leaves a void and sadness. My deepest condolences on the loss of your son. God bless.

Didn't know he had a cousin in the rock group, "Three Dog Night". But I am sorry to hear of his passing. I remember him lending his comedic performances, and guest spots, on many shows, and sit coms. A fun guy who will be truly missed, and I hope, never forgotten. A very sad loss.

I'm terribly saddened by this news. I would like to extend my sympathy and condolences to his family, friends, and co-workers.
I first noticed him in 'Young Doctors in Love,' he was so great! He seemed to never get the same sort of part later, but he still made the parts he did get(often pizza delivery guys) the funniest delivery guys ever.
RIP Taylor, I know you're headlining on the other side!

January 11, 2015
