Taylor, Kenneth

November 25, 2024

MR. KENNETH CHARLES TAYLOR, beloved husband of the late Mrs. Edith Taylor, of Lethbridge, AB, passed away at AgeCare Columbia on Monday, November 25, 2024 at the age of 85 years.  

Ken is survived by his children: Tracy Taylor, Alan (Christy) Taylor, Jim (Cyndil) Taylor, Derek (Lorna) Taylor and Lana Lorincz; along with his son-in-law, Mel Rhodes; and his grandchildren: Braydon and Megan Giesbrecht, Harrison and Ava Taylor, Allison Taylor, Liam and Brennen Taylor, Dustin and Chad Leask, and Stewart and Willaim Rhodes; as well as numerous great-grandchildren.

Besides his loving wife of 47 years, Edie Taylor, he is predeceased by his daughters, Michelle Taylor and Rhea Rhodes; as well as his brother, James Taylor; and his grandson, Andrew Lornicz.

Ken was born on August 9, 1938 in Dorintosh, Saskatchewan, where he grew up farming on the family farm. Throughout his life, Ken accomplished a number of things; he spent time as a Farmer, Taxi Driver, Air Traffic Controller, Horticulturist and spent many years with Southern Agri Services. In his younger years, he was an avid curler, hockey player and he loved to sing. Ken was an amateur entomologist who enjoyed gathering and displaying butterflies.

Ken lived in many places throughout his life, including Meadow Lake, Saskatoon and Regina, Saskatchewan, Fort St. John, B.C., Grande Prairie and Lethbridge, Alberta, along with Yuma, Arizona. Ken had many stories about his travels and his experiences (and he loved to tell you about them) but the things he liked to talk about the most were his life with Edie and how much his family meant to him.
Ken and Edie were very involved with their church and he was very thankful for his church family.

He will be very missed but we all understand that Ken and Edie are back together now and some of the stars shine a little brighter.

A private service will be held at a later date.
