Burial will follow in Riverview Memorial Gardens beside her husband Dan Taylor who passed away in 2005. Mrs. Taylor passed away Sunday night at her residence.

She was a member of the Mimosa Church of Christ.

Visitation with the family will be Tuesday from 11 AM until 1 PM at Higgins Funeral Home.
Ms. Waid was my 6th grade teacher in the late ‘60’s. Remember her fondly.
