I worked with Officer Taylor while at A Q Jones, and you could not ask for a more caring man, willing to sacrifice his time to help our youth of today. I found out about his home going after returning from a trip, and my heart and prayers go out to his family. We talked many times about his dream of buying a home in the country with acreage for his family. A big man, an uncomplicated man with intellect, a big heart for kids and family. He will be missed by many.

I just found out about this today and I know that he will be missed. We had many conversations about my juvenile clients and he was a very caring person about the kids at Outpost. I'm going to miss seeing him at court every Wednesday. But I could never miss him as much as all of the kids he mentored.
