Taylor, Mary Price

Our wife, mother and gramma went to be with the Lord peacefully in 
her sleep after battling an illness. Thank you Jesus for taking her 
pain away. We will love her and miss her for the rest of our days. 
Mom, known to family and friends as "The Queen" was born to Edgar and 
Ethel Price in Idabel, Oklahoma on September 17, 1937. She was the 
youngest child of six children. Later the family settled in Kern 
County. Mom went to Bakersfield High School, this is where she would 
meet the "love of her life", John Taylor all the way from Hawaii to 
go to Bakersfield College. They were just coming up on their 50th 
anniversary on May 31st. After Dad retired from the Fire Department 
in 1979 they spent every waking moment together, they were truly in 
love. Mom was full of spirit and love. She was kind hearted and at 
the same time like to speak her mind. She taught us to be independent 
and to take care of ourselves, she was always there for us. She 
taught us to forgive and not to hold on to things. Mom and Dad spent 
a lot of time at Pismo Beach in their trailer. She loved being at the 
beach and everyone loved to visit with Mom and Dad in their trailer. 
They made many great friends over the years. She raised three 
children with our father, John Taylor. Oldest daughter, Lee Ann 
Moore, her husband, Gary and daughters, Mary and Taylor. Their first 
son, Price Taylor and his children, Keoni, Kahala and Kapena. Their 
youngest son, Tracy Taylor and his wife, Abby and their children, 
Noah, Jenna and Luke. Thank you Mom for taking such good care of us. 
Our thanks go out to Dr. Chin Lee and Carolyn Gentry from Kaiser and 
the wonderful staff at Optimal Hospice that helped us care for our 
Mom at home. At her request there will be no services. In lieu of 
flowers, please make donations to Optimal Hospice or Kern County 
Alzheimer's Association. Mary Price Taylor Sept. 17, 1937 - Mar. 14, 
2007 Basham Funeral Care
