He was preceded in death by his beloved mother, Lois Smith Taylor, and "special" dad, Earl Taylor Jr. He leaves his wife, Stephanie Bruff, the love of his life, true friend, and loyal protector; his adored sister, Jill Celaya, of Mayfield, Kentucky; two wonderful sons, Sherman and Zachary; a special "bonus" daughter, Amelia and husband, Mike; daughter-in-law, Amanda, and cherished grandchildren, Will and Hadley, his "adopted family" in S.
