Frank Taylor Obituary
Frank was ornery in the best way: quick with a sharp comment, a smirk, or a fierce defense of what he believed was right. He was a loving spouse to Taylor and a proud, devoted parent to Liam, Ronan, and Esme. He lived for cooking nourishing meals, getting lost in the woods, building things with his hands, and exploring new places. He cared deeply about justice and never shied away from a good cause or a good argument.
One of his favorite reminders: "Memento mori, memento vivere." A quiet nudge to live fully, love boldly, and not take any of it for granted.
A celebration of Frank's life and legacy will be held at a later date. In the meantime, those wishing to honor him are invited to donate to Food and Shelter for Friends in Norman, Oklahoma, a cause close to his heart.
