Gregory Taylor Obituary
GREGORY TAYLOR
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our father, Greg Taylor, on May 7, 2014 at the age of 83. He is survived by his three daughters - Cydney (Chuck), Allison (Kirk), Shannon (Lorne), six grandchildren, two great-grandchildren and his eldest sister Joan Cooper of Maine, USA.
Greg was born in Williams Lake on December 31, 1930. He spent his younger years in Kamloops and graduated from Kitsilano High School in Vancouver. Returning to Kamloops after graduating from UBC Law School in 1955, he articled with Kennedy, Andrews and Company.
Along with practicing law for more than 35 years, Greg was an active member of the community as a lifetime member of the Kamloops Rotary Club. He also served on the Board of the TNRD and was a School Trustee & Deputy Coroner. Greg was an accomplished musician and played the Clarient in a Dance Band while putting himself through Law School. Music continued to play a large role throughout his life. His happiest times were spent at "Dull Acres", his Pritchard farm, summers at Shuswap Lake, many fall hunting trips, and winters skiing at Sun Peaks where he was an honorary member of the "Italian Ski Team".
We will miss his laughter, great sense of humor,
and witty remarks.
Special thanks to the nursings angels on 6 South at Royal Inland Hospital, Dr. Montgomery, and Dr. Rollheiser.
There will be a Celebration of Life for Greg on Thursday, May 22, from 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm in the Blackwell Room at the Plaza Hotel, 405 Victoria Street, Kamloops, BC.
Condolences may be sent to the family from
