OMG! My condolences Jan to you and the rest of the family. I will keep everyone in prayer and just know, when you close your eyes and think of Robert, bring forth that awesome smile and beautiful voice that Robby now had and all the moments he showed his love for his family. What a joy to be knocking on heavens door. He lives on all of you. Love to all.

I can still hear the announcement..."Come tonight to the Big Gospel Tent, on the Corner of 33rd and Ocean View Blvd." There were free Bibles and sawdust on the floor of the ground. There you would find your father Elder Taylor playing the organ, my dad Pastor Eric C. Ward, preaching the Three Angles Messages--writing on the chalkboard or Elder Orlando Rudley leading the youth in song. Or, in my mind's eye I see your dad playing the organ at 31st Street Church just bust doing the Lord's work, us running around as children do. He was amazingly talented! That's what I remember as a child, him at the organ and always wearing black shoes. You and your beautiful sisters and gorgeous mom are there too. Yes, my dad is standing at the pulpit--nothing keeps good, God-fearing men down for long! That's what my Bible says! In a moment in a twinkling of an eye--the Lord is coming soon! Don't you know that? Long gone are those days, but I promise you, I'll do my best to meet them in the kingdom as I know you will too. The tears of this life will be a thing of the past and I won't even come to our memory.
"Blessed are those who die in the Lord, they are blessed indeed, for they will rest from all their toils and trials; for their good deeds follow them!"
~Revelation 14:13
Lynda Ward-Stevenson, Family of the (Late) Pastor Eric C. Ward & Gwendolyn Ward

We listened to some of Robert's recordings of spirituals yesterday. What a beautiful and powerful voice he had--lots of energy and intensity in his high notes.

Robert Taylor was always very helpful with research in the Tennessee Room of the Jackson-Madison County Library. He is greatly missed.

God bless you as you work your way through this. Losing my own dad was very painful, so I can relate to your grief. Only time heals the raw emotions, but please hang onto the happy memories, for they'll be what will carry your on onto until you see him again well and strong and eternally young.

NOTES FROM FACEBOOK:

BEV M: I have some sad news to share with you. Our former Bible and Choir Teacher Elder Robert Taylor passed away yesterday. Many of you might also remember him for creating and directing the Madrigels (spelling?), the special chorale that he started at SUA/SAA. I believe Janice sang with that group. He was married to my mother’s sister Ione, but had been divorced for a long time. They have 4 children and 6 grandchildren. He had the gift of music and will be missed by all who knew and loved him. Please remember the family in prayer. Thank you!

Yolanda Wagner: How sad! I sang and traveled with the Madrigals during his tenure. Took the trip to the Bahamas & Mexico. He was a great choir director.

Fred Mathews Sorry to hear this news. As you may remember he was also our class sponsor as freshman. He was an incredible softball pitcher and due in large part to him our freshman team made a big statement by beating all the other classes including the seniors! Great memories .... he was a positive influence in my life even for the brief time I was around him.

Uncle Robert Donald Taylor Jr's service will be streamed live from University SDA Church at 10am tomorrow, Thursday, July 17, 2014 via universitysdamedia.org

The viewing of Uncle Robert is taking place now until 8pm at
Angelus Funeral Home

Los Angeles, CA 90008

I send up prayers for the family of my Uncle Robert. He will be missed, but I look forward to singing in the Heavenly choir he will be directly in our Heavenly Home and before the throne of God! Thank you Uncle Robert for giving me the love of music!
