Robert Taylor Obituary
Bob grew up in Colchester and graduated from Bacon Academy; he worked in the shipyard at Electric Boat for 38 years as a welder and was a member of the International Brotherhood of Boilermakers Local 614. He married his wife Phyllis June 10, 1995, and they moved to Bozrah. Bob was a hardworking and fun-loving husband and father who was quick with a "Dad Joke"; he loved his family and the time they spent together camping, playing cornhole or letterboxing, he also enjoyed gardening and crafting.
Bob is survived by Phyllis Taylor, his wife of 25 years of Bozrah; his four children, son Robert R. Taylor of Mississippi, stepdaughter Kim Hunt of Salem; stepson Mike Taylor of Jewett City and "adopted" daughter Samantha Poulin; his brothers, Charles Taylor, William Taylor and Christopher Taylor; his sister Beth Moran; grandsons, Lauren and Zachary and several nieces and nephews.
A celebration of Bob's life will be held at a later date when family and friends may safely gather. Belmont Funeral Home LLC has been entrusted with Bob's care. Condolences and memories can be left at www.belmontfh.com.

Bob was loved by all and always had a smile and joke. At family functions had the need to be the taste tester for the desserts. He became like a father to my daughter after my husband passed. He now is an angel above with other members of the family looking over us all. My love to Phyllis, Mikey and Kimmy always.
