I Offer my condolences to the Taylor Family. Mr. Taylor was a blessing to many people of Texas City, La Marque, and Galveston County. As I served as Pastor of Greater Macedonia Baptist Church for nearly 10 years I was blessed by his service in the care and comfort of the members of my church to whom he was entrusted. He was always a professional with a loving spirit of humility.
Rest in Peace my friend as you have laid so many others to their PEACE. Our Lord's Blessing upon your Family. I remain,
Humble by your service,
Donald G. Burgs, Jr
Pastor
Alief and Tabernacle Baptist Churches

I shall always remember the friendship that Bro. Taylor had with my grandfather, the way that he read the memorial scriptures during communion at church, his love for gospel meetings and revivals, and his gentle, generous spirit. I am also grateful that he sponsored me in the Adelphi Club Debutante Ball many years ago. The family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
