Donald R. Taylor

Donald Raymond Taylor took his first breath on the morning of February 12, 1960, in Chicago, Illinois, to the delight of Jesse and Aretha (Johnson) Taylor.

Survivors include his son, Taurean Rayan Fields Taylor; his mother, Aretha Taylor; two brothers: Benny E. Taylor and Jesse C. Taylor; two sisters: Marilyn (Taylor) Smith and Marla R. (Taylor) Burton; along with a host of other relatives and friends. 

His son, Tilas Chea Taylor, and father, Jesse Taylor preceded him in death.

Donald was a loving father, son, brother, uncle, friend, and cousin. He always kept a smile and cracked jokes. He was a light in the darkness. Always willing to help the next person. He loved fishing, listening to music, laughing, talking, and always trying to give advice on life. He loved everybody and was loved by all.
