Not sure what to say?

Dr. Taylor was the best, and a a wonderful person. My heart goes out to family he left behind as no time can heal a broken heart.

Jill, Wendy, Lon and Fran,
It still makes me sad to think about Don passing away. He was always like the dad I wished I had. Staying at your house when we were younger was always a refuge for me. Don was funny and kind and dealt with people in an intuitive way. He raised a great family with Fran! He will be missed! If there is anything I can do to help, let me know. Love Sandy Vavalle

My condolences to the whole Taylor family. To this day whenever I have to find a new optometrist my standard is that set by my experience as Dr. Taylor's patient as a 3rd grade boy. He set the bar high. He is missed

Mrs. Taylor, Wendy, Jill & Lon:
I am very sorry to hear about Dr. Taylor's passing. He was my optometrist for many years. I always asked him if I could get my seeing eye dog yet... but unfortunately (or fortunately) he always said no, not yet. He will be missed.
Wendy... I second Jaco's thoughts... it has been too long.

Mrs. Taylor, Lon, Wendy and Jill,
I know it has been so very long since we have been in touch. However, remembering Dr. Taylor is like yesterday. He could make us laugh until our ribs hurt. His sense of humor, generosity and kindness has never been forgotten. He never will be either. Please accept my condolences for his passing and know that I think of you all in this difficult time.

Mrs. Taylor, Jill, Lon, and Wendy, I am so sorry to hear about Mr. Taylor's passing. I know what it is like to lose a parent..it is not easy. I have many fond and happy memories of Mr. Taylor. I will always remember the fact that he took time out of his busy life to come to my football games. I also remember him trying to teach me how to ski...Boy!..was he patient...the trips to Wildwood...and my home away from home in Caz....which included the BIGGEST pancakes I ever saw and the best...

Jill and family,
I am so sorry about of your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time.

Aunt Fran and family, very sorry for your loss.I enjoyed going to our Legion with Uncle Don and hearing the stories from Split Rock. You are in my thoughts and prayers. God speed Uncle Don.

Dear Mrs. Taylor, Wendy, Lon and Jill,

I was so sorry to hear of Dr. Taylor's passing. It was always great being at your home. Dr. and Mrs. Taylor were always so friendly and interested in what we were doing. Dr. Taylor even helped us to put up a pasture in a blizzard! What a great guy!

Very best wishes to you all during this difficult time.

Wendy, I'll be in touch - it's been too many years.

Best, Jaco
