Guy R. Taylor, 81, of Drexel, NC went to his heavenly home on Monday, November 12, 2018 after a courageous battle with mesothelioma.

He was born in Madison County on July 17, 1937 to the late Joe Guy Taylor and Ossie Ball Taylor.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by two sisters, Rebecca Parham and Zora Rice.

Guy was a veteran of the US Navy. After a 33 year career with BASF in Enka, NC, Guy formed Professional Safety Services, Inc., a safety consulting firm in Asheville. Always living life to the fullest with a staunch work ethic, Guy was a passionate entrepreneur, rarely found without a project in process. He was an avid cattle farmer, bowler, golfer and sports fan. But his most important treasure was his relationship with Jesus Christ. Guy was a member of Pleasant Ridge Baptist Church where he formerly taught Sunday School and served on various church committees.

The family will receive friends from 11:00 – 12:00 on Thursday, November 15, 2018 at Pleasant Ridge Baptist Church. The funeral service will be held at 12:00 noon with Pastor Shawn Thomas officiating. Entombment will follow at Burke Memorial Park Mausoleum. Military honors will be provided by the US Navy.

Sossoman Funeral Home and Crematory Center is assisting the family with the arrangements.
