James Mark Taylor

My name is Boyd Taylor and I am fundraising to help defray the costs associated with my brother's funereal. All donations will go to his wife Shelly to help pay funeral expenses.

Mark, as he was known to family and friends, died suddenly at his home December 29th, 2023 at the age of 68. He has been unemployed since 2020, and has no life insurance to speak of.

Mark was born February 24th, 1955 and was a lifelong resident of Geneva, Ohio. He has been married since December 21, 1991 to Michele (Fenton) Taylor.

Mark worked for over 40 years as a machinist doing everything from setup and operation of manual machines to setting up and programming complicated CNC machines to make precision parts for the Aerospace, Defense & Transportation industries. Mark was well liked and respected by his coworkers.

Mark was also an animal lover who not only took exceptional care of his animals, but also donated anonymously to help provide medical care for other animals in need. He also had great compassion for the two legged variety. He was always willing to help family, friends, and strangers. He was a kind and gentle soul that had a smile that could light up a room, and liked to greet people with that smile and a witty joke.

A lover of music, in his spare time he and his wife enjoyed attending concerts.

Mark was a loving husband, father, son, brother, uncle, and friend who was deeply loved and will be missed terribly by those who knew him.
