Geraldine “Geri” Dillard Taylor, age 82, of Franklin, passed away on Sunday, January 31, 2021 in Franklin, TN.

Geri was born in Nashville, TN to the late Thomas E. Dillard and Mary E. Foley on January 4, 1939.
She attended Catholic schools and was a graduate of class of 1957 St. Bernard Academy in Nashville. She married Hubert Joseph Taylor on August 18, 1958 in Nashville, TN. She worked at what was then the Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph Company In Nashville, TN as a switch board operator for several years after high school but spent the majority of her life as a Mother and homemaker for her husband and four children.

Her Catholic faith was a cornerstone of her life and she conducted herself and raised her children accordingly. Her former classmates at St. Bernard were lifelong friends. When it was permissible in TN, she enjoyed going with family and friends to play bingo at Knights of Columbus functions and at the State Labor Hall. She never really held any titles or led any organizations but she was always involved in the lives of her children and grandchildren giving her time, patience, and advice.

Geri is preceded in death by her husband of sixty-one years, Hubert J. Taylor and her daughter, Annamarie Taylor Eggleston.

Survivors include Son, Daniel (Marianne) J. Taylor; daughters, Renee Taylor Richbourg (fiancé, Stuart Johnson) and Karen D. Taylor; sister Peggy Dillard Carr; son-in-law Greg Eggleston; ten grandchildren and nine great grandchildren.

The family will receive friends from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM on Thursday, February 4, 2021 at Church of the Nativity, 2793 Buckner Lane, Thompson’s Station, TN where a funeral mass will follow at 1:00 PM with Pastor Jerry Strange Officiating.
