I am the daughter of Dolores Taylor. My husband John and I took my mother and your mother on a cruise several years ago. We will always remember your mom's quick wit and positive attitude. She was a lot of fun and we were glad to be able to get to know her. We are so sorry for your loss.

Dear Barry, Jill and Bryan,
Your mom was a dear friend of my mother and our family for many decades. After my mother died 5 years ago, your mom called me every month to see how I was doing. I loved her quick wit. It always amazed me that your mom was always so positive despite her many health issues. The fact that she lived to almost 85 is a testament to her spirit. I will miss her as I'm sure you will also. My thoughts and prayers are with her and your family.
