It is with great sadness that we announce, Ryan Sean Taylor, age 38, passed away unexpectedly on Thursday, August 6, 2020 in a tragic swimming accident.
Cherished and beloved son of Douglas and Marcelline Taylor of Saratoga Springs, NY, loving brother of Douglas Taylor of Syracuse, NY, Scott (Elizabeth) Taylor of Johnson City, NY and Marcelline (Cyrone) Taylor. Also survived by, his niece Marcelline Lovell of Tucson, AZ, his loving aunts and uncles Eileen and Michael Katz of Naples, FL, Maureen and Timothy Harvey of Endicott, NY, Terrance Sullivan of Binghamton, NY, and cousins Jerome (Tori) Katz of Nashville, TN, Stephanie (Matthew) Grossman of Raleigh, NC, and Louis and Nicholas Harvey of Vestal, NY as well as many, many great friends; especially Tribe.
Ryan was born in Olean, NY and grew up in Saratoga Springs, NY.
He graduated from Saratoga High School (2001) where he played varsity football and wrestling. He then attended Adirondack Community College and graduated from Curry College in 2008.
He was a valued employee at the Saratoga Race Harness Track.
He was an avid sports enthusiast and a lifelong fan of the Saratoga Race Track spending summer days with his father watching the horses. He loved working in the garden with his mother and watching his tomato plant flourish. In his downtime he loved to watch Disney movies, SpongeBob and his favorite sports teams, the NY Giants and NY Yankees. His favorite was to watch the Boston Red Sox lose.
Those who knew Ryan, even if just for a short time, lost a shining light in their lives. He was a lover of children and kind to all those he met. Ryan was a true friend to so many - ready and willing to help with whatever was needed. Since his unexpected passing, many have written about how special and loved he was and how cherished his friendships are. He has been described as “one of the funniest, hard-nosed, biggest heart a person could ask for”, “a light in my life when I needed you most”, “a brother”, and for having “brought so much laughter and joy”. He will continue to stay with us all through memories and the laughs he forced us all to endure whether we were in the mood for it or not.
Interment will be held at St. Peter’s Cemetery, 150 West Ave, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866 following the service.
