I first visited with big Bill Taylor in 1975 and had the privilege of having luncheon with him. I enjoyed his tour of the factory in Mississippi. I was taken with the chapel he maintained for his family and employees. I always admired Bill and feel honored to have had him consider me a friend. God Bless him.

I MET MR. TAYLOR IN 1976, I HAD JUST STARTED IN THE FORKLIFT INDUSTRY. HE MADE AN IMMEDIATE IMPRESSION,HE TRUSTED HIS ASSOCIATES AND EXPECTED THEM TO PROVIDE THEIR LOYAL CUSTOMERS THE INDUSTRIES QUICKEST AND MOST PROFESSIONAL SERVICE.THAT IS AGREAT LESSON TO EVERYONE IN OUR BUSINESS. MEN LIKE BILL TAYLOR DONT COME AROUND THAT OFTEN,HE WAS TRULEY A CHRISTIAN BUSINESS LEADER AND WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED.

Please let us take this time to convey our heart felt sorrow during this difficult time. We will miss seeing Mr. Bill down at the museum. Our boys always enjoyed the times we spent there. Mr. Bill invited us to stop in and visit any time while in town. He was always interested in our little projects and took time out of his busy schedule to help, always giving words of encouragement and many times needed advice. He will be greatly missed.
Sincerly,

Dear Friends, I have been thinking about you and wish God's peace for you in this trying time of losing your loved one and my friend. I regreted I could not come to Louisville, but had a court meeting in New Orleans called for Saturday to deal with a ethical charge against one of the judges. Sam Taylor called me and asked that I send him a copy of the obituary, and I did that. We all had some great times at the boats--the Amazing Grace and the Bayou Bell. Hope to see you soon. Neal

Dear Mitzie, Lex, Teresa and Robert, it is difficult to put into words the depths of sorrow and peaks of happiness that fill my heart at this time. From the first time I met Mr. Taylor in 1983, he made me feel like a member of his family. His love and friendship was of great comfort to me.
Mr. Taylor touched the lives of many people during his life and I feel blessed and honored to be among them. Bill's subtle way of teaching and negotiating was far better than any MBA school could hope to teach. He taught me more about life, love, friendship, generosity and business than anyone, and more than anyone could expect to know. I know of no other person who touched, in a very positive way, the lives of so many people in so many ways. Mr. Taylor was truly bigger than life. He will be sorely missed.
The extended Ramsey family have all been blessed by knowing Mr. Taylor and we extend our warmest thoughts and prayers to each of you at this time. I love each of you.

He and I talked several times about my van parts sales and shared so many stories together.He really has taught me that it is all about Faith,Vision,and Work.
I will never forget how he liked sweet potatoes and always wanted me to pick them up in Vardaman,Ms. for him.When he autographed his book for me, he drew a picture of a Sweet Potato and signed it "Big Red".That meant so much to me,especially now.
I know that you will miss him alot because all i have are these special memories and you have so many.

He was such a special and caring man while he was with us and now his loving spirit will live with us forever. God Bless each of you and please take comfort in knowing how many people he affected in such a positive way.
