The Bakersfield Californian 
Sandra "Sandy" (Sims) Taylor
11/17/1947 - 01/17/2005

Our beloved Sandy has left us and though we know that she is in a far better 
place, in her absence the colors here on Earth ar paler, the Sun less bright 
for those of us who knew and loved her. 

Sandy was born in Bakersfield and lived here all of her life, She was the 
sixth child born to a very close family of eight girls and five boys where 
money was often short but love and laughter among the brothers and sisters was 
always present. Long lines to the bathroom in the morning, great stacks of 
dishes to wash and checking younger brothers or sisters feet for your missing 
gym socks was a daily occurrence and accepted by all because it was the norm. 
Growing up in those conditions Sandy developed a wry sense of humor and great 
story telling abilities and she kept that humor until the end. Sandys friends 
were many but few of them knew of her lovely singing voice because in spite of 
her outgoing personality she was shy about singing in front of anyone except 
her family. She often sang to her younger brothers and sisters at bedtime but 
the older ones enjoyed her sweet voice just as much.

Sandys family was everything to her and she loved them all very much, 
especially her grandchildren. She will always be Nandy to Jimmy 3rd, mother to 
Jimmy 2nd and his wife Monica and Daughter Kamie Meadows. Morgan, Ryan, 
Cassidy and Seth Meadows. She was wife to the great love of her life, Tom, she 
was his morning sun and his evening light, they were best friends and shared 
an enduring love, a love that few people will ever experience. Daughter to 
Lucille Ferguson, sister to Patsy Church, Paula Boles, Caroline Wellborn, Judy 
Salvamoser, Clifton Sims, Marilyn Sims, Gwen Schmitt, Carly King and Trina 
Selvey. Three brothers, Don, Curtis and Ricky Sims preceded her in death. 
Sandys favorite line was, sisters are forever, You are forever Sandy, forever 
in our hearts.

A funeral Mass will be celebrated at St. Josephs Catholic Church on Friday, 
January 21, 2005 at 10:00 a.m., graveside services will follow at Greenlawn 
Cemetery, 3700 River Boulevard.

Pallbearers will be Joe Mann, Jimmy Meadows 3rd, Ryan Meadows, Richard 
Philley, Rodney Wolford and Carly King.

No visitation is scheduled.
