How the years have flown!  Taylor is our first-born grandchild and is now 25 years old.  She is the child of our eldest daughter, Mindy,  whose memorial page you can visit here.  Taylor is smart, pretty, kind, and tall-  5 foot 10 1/2 inches - and has sparkling brown eyes and a smile that will gladden your heart!  She often seems quiet and introspective, but when you least expect it, she surprises and delights you with her mature outlook, her dry wit and her fearlessness!  We are very proud of the responsible young woman she has become. 

   In high school Taylor lettered in volleyball  (you can see her in her letter jacket in one picture above) and even now -in 2007 -plays with a fun and successful volley ball league. 
She played with a  volley ball club as an extra-curricular activity for several years.  During her college years she coached a teen girls volleyball team.

Taylor graduated with honors in 2005 from a southeastern university with a degree in psychology. She is a member of the Tau chapter of Phi Sigma Pi, a national honors fraternity. She is newly- employed as a mental health therapist for the county, and is attending graduate school to get her Masters Degree in Counseling.

Taylor is now attending graduate school 
while continuing to work full- time.
