John Taylor Obituary

This came as a big surprise to me and others with the district, a huge loss to Timberland and our district, I enjoyed working with Kevin and sharing thoughts, stories and ideas about the US Navy (I was a corpsman) and teaching stories.

My condolences are with the family! He will be missed!!!

I don't have the words. I can't believe this. I'm so sorry for your loss and I know he's in a better place. He made such an impact on my Navy career

He was my friend, he was a friend to everyone, he was a mentor and friend to his loved students. He was a rock with impeccably integrity, and a pillar in the community. We have a huge void because he is no longer physically here. His legacy lives on in the lives of the ones he loved, the ones who loved him, the ones he taught and the ones he touched. His acts of kindness will be cherished by unknown numbers of people from his exceptional Navy Career and his teaching career. Please let me know if you need anything. I am broken hearted with you and your precious family.

Mr. Taylor was an amazing man and an even better teacher. He shared so much knowledge to us and had a real passion for it. He helped my best friend who has passed on with alot before he left this world. Mr. Taylor has touched us all and we owe alot to him. Rest easy till we meet again.

Kevin was one of the kindest men I have met. I enjoyed talking with him and exchanging stories about our families and life experiences. He will be very missed! Continued prayers and love for the family!

I had the pleasure of know Kevin for 5 years. Since we both are veterans, we shared and reminisced of our good times and military service. Kevin had a heart of gold and would go out of his way to help his friends, students, and even strangers. I'm going to miss our long talks, working on our trucks together, and laughing together. You're going to be sorely missed, and can never be replaced! Love you bro!

It was a honor and pleasure to work with such a good man. No matter when I called he was willing to help me. He left a huge impact not only on me but my son as well. He only had him 1 semester but the life lessons and knowledge he got out of that class will be with him for a life time. We say goodbye for now but knowing one day we will see you again in heaven gives us peace. Praying for peace and comfort for the family.

Mr. Taylor left an impact on everyone he spoke to. Thank you for sharing him with us.

Kevin always brighten my morning at school when he would come to the office to get his mail. Even on days when he did not look like he was having the best morning, his response to how are you would be "Always Good!" I thought that was a real testament to his positive take on life! He was so fun to work with and we all counted on his skills when in need of car repairs. Of course the faculty and staff loved him, but these kids, they just don't know what they will do without him. He was a mentor and supporter of all of those he taught. To say that we will all miss him is an understatement. Angelyn, my heart goes out to you and your children. I am right around the corner in Goose Creek if you need anything.

Always willing to lend a hand, no matter if he knew you or not. He was such a giving person. I am truly blessed to have worked with you.
May God comfort your family, and give them strength for the days ahead. RIP Mr. Kevin.

Truly taught me a lot on the boat with side life lessons, Rest on SC,for you will truly be remembered and missed

Rest your oars brother we got your watch.

I had the opportunity to work with Chief Taylor at NNPTC and will always remember him as a really helpful person and a pleasure to talk to. Deepest sympathy to your entire family.

Robert and I are thinking about you all in this difficult time. It was a pleasure meeting Kevin and knowing how he treated our only daughter Torre as his own. Rip Kevin.

Rest in peace Mr Taylor, you will be missed.

I'm so sorry for you Angie. My heart hurts to think he's gone too soon. I know nothing can make it better but know there's so many peoples lives hers touched and made them better. I love you both.

I am SO SORRY. We dearly loved this man, well he was a boy when we last saw him, but we loved Kevin.

Mr. Taylor,
Words cannot express how we have been impacted by your transition. You have brought us lots of laughter and left us with many precious memories. Your "giant" presence was one that will forever be missed. The students, faculty and staff at Timberland High were certainly blessed to have you as a teacher but more importantly as a friend. We take comfort in knowing you are absent from the body but now present with our Lord and Savior. We pray God's continued blessings of comfort for Angelyn and the children. Rest in paradise until we meet again.
