Mark Taylor passed away on October 1, 2025 following a long illness. He was born on February 15, 1958 and grew up in Booneville, KY.
He spent most of his adult life with his family in Jackson County, KY. He was a machinist and woodworker by trade. He was a humble man with a kind soul. He was a man of simple tastes who did not seek meaningless adulation. He will be dearly missed by his wife of 43 years, Becca, a son Benjamin, daughter-in law Chelsea, granddaughter Nora Josephine, and other close family and friends.
In keeping with his humble life private services were held on Saturday, October 4th with his son speaking.
