Arthur Taylor Obituary

Arthur Lawrence "Larry" Taylor passed peacefully from this life on Sept. 22, 2013 at home in Silver City, N.M. He was 63. He was born Oct. 5, 1949 to Arthur F. Taylor and the late Uva Taylor, in Norfolk, Va. He lived many years in the Research Triangle area of North Carolina, where he received his graduate degree in Information Science from UNC-Chapel Hill and worked in information technology. He is survived by his children, Jennifer Taylor living in Germany, and his twin daughters Alexia and Ashley Taylor, living in North Carolina; by his father Arthur; his sister Diane Winn, and his brother Robert Taylor and their families in Virginia; and by his loving companion and partner of many years, Lynda Aiman-Smith of Silver City. Larry brought joy to many hearts, and dancing to many feet, with his music. His myriad gifts of musical versatility and his kindness will be missed.

Sorry I missed you Larry. For the past couple of years I have been drawn back to the Course in Miracles you introduced me to back when Hugh Lynn was reading the drafts of what became the book. It shook me and I turned to other things. But, as you pointed out, the course is mandatory; it is only a question of when.
