Elizabeth Taylor Obituary
Elizabeth Ann Taylor, age 68, born Feb. 4, 1939, in Sacramento, Calif., died July 13, 2007, in St. George, Utah after a long fight with cancer. She is survived by her husband, Wes Taylor, her sons, Mark Taylor and Blaine Taylor; daughter, Kelly Taylor; sisters, Judy Suter and Janet Stickler; brother, Leonard Stickler; four grandchildren and one great-grandchild. She was a loving mother, homemaker, and devoted wife for fifty years. A graduate of the University of California, Chico, she earned her teaching credential and taught for 21 years for the Live Oak, California School District. Her dedication and enthusiasm towards education will long be remembered by students and faculty. She was an accomplished golfer, winning many awards, including the City Championship in St. George, UT in 2006; her second love was playing bridge. The world was a joyous place to her and will be far lonelier without her. The family wishes that any donations be made to cancer research.
