Obituary

Authored by Madfish Willie
Fri, December 15, 2006

Moms Obit Photo.jpg

Ethel E. K. Taylor, age 75, joined her beloved parents, Alvan and Edythe Killgore and brother, James A. Killgore in the arms of God on the 10th of December 2006.

As an Army Air Force 'Brat,' she traveled with her family to the Orient where she lived in Manila and the Philippine Islands. While in Manila Ethel contracted Polio, but was saved from being crippled by a young corpsman who played a game of 'penny' with her. If she could touch a penny, which was placed on her chest, she could keep the penny. During WWII Ethel traveled with her family throughout the South, as her Dad was transferred to various stations. Unfortunately, in her later years, polio returned in the form of Post-Polio Syndrome.

Despite what some would allow to be a set back in life, Ethel had a successful nursing career of fifty plus years.

Ethel joined forces with friends, Cathryn Matson, Ruth Moon and Mike Beard, and organized the Post-Polio Group at Warm Springs Rehabilitation Hospital. Witnessing the group prosper proved to be a source of great inspiration for Ethel. She will truly be missed by all who knew and loved her.

Ethel is survived by her daughter, Charlotte Mahler and husband, Stan; sons, Michael J. and Peter T. Taylor; grandchildren, Jessica Lauchner and husband, Nathan, Matthew Mahler, David Mahler and wife, Erin; sister, Eloise K. D'Amore and husband, George; Uncle, Farrol Killgore and wife, Juanita; sister-in-law, Le Killgore; many nieces, nephews, and friends.

BlueAngel - RIP

Authored by Madfish Willie
Sun, December 10, 2006

My mother, BlueAngel, passed away this morning at 11:30.

She had been in the hospitol for the last week due to breathing and heart troubles. Yesterday she was moved into ICU. This morning she suffered a heart attack. The doctors brought her back once and she stabilized for a brief time. She suffered another heart attack and the doctors performed CPR for around 10 minutes before they came out to talk to the family. They determined that if they could and did resuscitate her, she would be in a vegatative state. Her living will included a DNR so we honored her wishes and let her go.

She goes to a better place where her body is made whole again and she suffers no more.


I will post information on her memorial services as soon as we get the details worked out.

I know that she really enjoyed working on this web site and passing along information to others who were afflicted with the same disease she had. Please remember her in your prayers.

Thank you very much
