In memory of

Rita Doreen Taylor

Mother to Marc (Annette) & Sean, wife to Allister, & loving friend to many, Rita Taylor slipped away on May 16’20.

Universally recognized as a warm, caring, thoughtful & generous person, she enriched the lives of all she touched with her charm & easy-going way. Among her many talents were creative arts, decorating, thoughtful words & advice, insightful perspectives, & of course outstanding culinary skills. In fact, she often expressed her love for family & friends by preparing beautiful meals that satisfied appetites & satiated the soul.

She lived her life with grace & humility, always putting others first. Simply put, no mere words can justly express who she was. To know her though, is to love her.

She will be greatly missed & she will ALWAYS live in our hearts & in our minds.

She was, is, & will be, forever loved.
- Allister, Marc & Sean

Mrs T was and remains love and light. When in a room filled with others you felt her energy her presence Always smiling with an infectious laugh. Her conversations were meaningful and inspiring when she spoke you could feel the emotion,the texture, the taste of what she was saying as she was able to articulate things in a way you could understand. Mrs T gave the best hugs on the planet. We will miss her laugh and her stories but her love and spirit will remain with us forever. What a true blessing it is that God introduced us. We will always love you and will always be grateful for you. Angelina,Ian & Elizabeth
