Mrs. Lula Belle Taylor

Lula Belle “Lou” Taylor, 89, of Roswell, went to be with the Lord on Sunday, March 11, surrounded by her loving family. She was born on March 3, 1929 in Acworth, Georgia, to Leroy and Mae Conner, the eldest of three sisters. She enjoyed a 69 year marriage to John “Juppie” Taylor that ended in his passing exactly one year prior to hers, evidence of God’s blessing of their union and His love for them. Surviving are her loving daughters Connie (Ed) Stinson of Roswell and Sheila (David) King of Anderson, South Carolina, and one sister Edna (J.C.) Palmer of Marietta. Also surviving are four grandchildren, Russell (Sherri) McTyre, Matthew (Kathy) McTyre, Taylor (Matthew) King Young and Kendra (Graeme) Kaiser; seven great-grandchildren, Jake McTyre, Lane McTyre, Kate McTyre, Mallory McTyre, King Young, Will Kaiser and Norah Kaiser. Niece, Malinda (David) Stephens and a great-nephew, Joshua (Bonnie) Stephens and great-niece, Deborah (Geoff) Warr. Lou was a life-long resident of Roswell, graduating from Milton High School in Alpharetta at the age of 17. She retired from Georgia Power Company in 1995 after 35 years of service. A member of Lebanon Baptist Church in Roswell, Lou served in various capacities as a faithful member of the congregation for 52 years. Her love for the Lord was apparent in the way she served others. She loved to cook, enjoyed socializing with friends, and most of all, spending time with her family. They will be blessed with fond memories of annual beach and lake trips each summer, Christmas Eve celebrations, and countless family get-togethers. She leaves a strong legacy of faith, wisdom, and love to all who knew her. A humble, kind, and extraordinary woman, Lou gave generously of all she had – considering others more important than herself, and making each person feel special in her presence. Her life was a rare and beautiful light in the world, and she will be deeply missed by those that loved her. Visitation will be held from 6:00 to 8:00 pm on Tuesday, March 13, 2018 at Northside Chapel and from 10:00 to 10:50 am on Wednesday, March 14, 2018 at Lebanon Baptist Church. The funeral service will be held at Lebanon Baptist Church at 11:00 am on Wednesday, March 14, 2018 - Pastor Brian Peterson officiating. The burial will be at Green Lawn Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Lebanon Baptist Church, 11250 Crabapple Road, Roswell, GA. 30075
