Robert Taylor Obituary
Robert Harrison Taylor, 77, of Wampum, Pennsylvania, passed away Sunday, Dec. 17, 2023, at Heritage Valley Health System in Beaver, Pennsylvania.
Robert was born June 30, 1946, in Whitesburg, Kentucky, to Tommy W. and Mattie (Thomas) Taylor. He graduated from Whitesburg High School in 1965. He was retired, but was self-employed the majority of his life in Timber and Logging. He was also the local Code Enforcement Officer for a time. He was a very generous man with his time and talents and touched many people's lives. Whenever he saw a person in need, he was always willing to bless them in tangible and other ways. He had an unparalleled work ethic and enjoyed making business deals, spending time at his farm, and fishing in his pond.
He looked forward to traveling to Whiteburg, Kentucky each year to see his high school classmates and friends. He also enjoyed starting his day out by having breakfast with friends and stopping at the local corner store (where everyone knew his name) to get coffee. His favorite thing to do was spend time with his family. His greatest accomplishment was being a wonderful and loving husband, father, and grandfather.
Robert's survivors include his wife, Nancy Taylor of Wampum, Pennsylvania; daughter, Julie Soterin (and son-in-law, George Soterin) of Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania; son, Richard Franklin (and daughter-in-law, Adrienne Franklin) of Bloomville; stepdaughter, Felicia Maietta; grandchildren, Camilla Anderson and Roman Anderson of Wampum, Pennsylvania; and sister, JoElla Sturgill of Lowellville.
He was preceded in death by his parents; brothers, Charles "Eddie" Taylor and David Taylor; and sisters, Sharon Tyree and Madonna Whipple.
