Mr. Taylor will be laid to rest with military honors on Thursday, April 19, 2012 at Nashville National Cemetery in Madison, TN. Heritage Funeral Home is in charge and assisting the family with arrangements.
Glyn was born on December 30, 1943 in Nashville, TN and was one of nine children of Paul Taylor and Naomi Blackwell. He served our country in the United States Army, being stationed in Germany and Korea. After his military service, Glyn became a framer in the construction industry, spending 17 years as the Supervisor for Marion-Thurman Builders. For a period of time, he was a co-owner of MT Contractors, and worked with his brother, Roy, for over 10 years in his siding company.
Following his working years, Glyn began to move toward returning to a simpler life. He obtained a cabin near Charlotte, TN where he began enjoy the beauty of the flowers and gardens he planted, along with the pond on the property.
