Ronald Alfred Taylor Jr., age 57, went to be with our Lord Savior Jesus Christ on Sept. 29, 2014, at Integris Bass Baptist Health Center. Ron lived in Enid for over 20 years.
Ron was born on Aug. 8, 1957, in Conway, S.C., to Ron and Shirley Taylor. He was raised in Clovis, N.M., at Cannon Air Force Base. Upon graduation from high school he received a basketball scholarship and attended college in Odessa, Texas. He spent several years playing basketball with the Cannon Air Force Base basketball team.
He served in the United States Air Force for six years and was stationed in Guam and California. Ron worked for Applebee’s for several years and most recently Jumbo Foods.
Ron is survived by seven children, Teanesa Taylor, Broderick Taylor, Jason Taylor, Elizabeth Taylor, Jackie Taylor, Joshua Taylor, all of Oklahoma City, and Brittni Taylor of Enid; parents, Ron and Shirley Taylor of Enid; siblings James Taylor of Norman, Sharon and Jerry Miner of Amarillo, Texas, Jack and Theresa Taylor of Lebanon, Mo.
He is also survived by his wife Janice Taylor and special friend Jennifer Webb. Ron is also blessed with 10 grandchildren and five nieces and nephews. Ron had a love for life and a love for people. He always had a smile on his face. He adored his children and loved his family.
He leaves this message to those he loved, “Now we see things imperfectly, like puzzling reflections in a mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity. All that I know now is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely, just as God now knows me completely. Three things will last forever — faith, hope, and love — and the greatest of these is love.” 1 Corinthians 13:12-13
Ron’s Life Celebration Service will be held at 1 p.m Saturday, Oct. 4, 2014, at Anderson-Burris Funeral Home, with Dr. James Taylor officiating.
Interment will follow in Memorial Park Cemetery. Visitation with the family will be 6:30-7:30 p.m. Friday at the funeral home. Condolences online at www.anderson burris.com.
