Harold Allan Taylor
January 17th, 2018
Harold Allan Taylor, 83, passed away peacefully at 8:45 pm in New Westminster BC, surrounded by his family.
Harold was born in Portage La Prairie, MB on September 19, 1934. He moved to Burnaby, BC over 52 years ago with his wife Katie Taylor and their children. He worked for the Telus Phone company for 25 years and prior to that 15 years for Manitoba Tel. Harold was a huge Detroit Red Wings hockey fan and a great player himself. He even played junior hockey for the Portage La Prairie Terriers before starting his family.
Harold was known as a gentle man with a quiet and thoughtful disposition. He was slow to anger and never passed judgement. On any given Saturday you would find him in a quiet corner watching his grandchildren play hockey or skate.
He is survived by his wife of 60 years Katie, his older brother Keith, sister-in-law Mary, his three children Cindy, Robert (Debra), and Shelly (Peter), 6 grandchildren Jesse (Samantha), Sarah (Carson), Nathan, Naia, Cole, and Mackenzie, and his great-grandson Michael. A celebration of Harold’s life will be held at Buchanan Lodge (409 Blair Ave, New Westminster, BC) on January 25th, 2018 at 2PM. Harold will be placed to rest at Robinson Park Cemetery. We will miss you Harold (HAT). Until next time, keep your stick on the ice.
You are invited to leave a personal message of condolence for the family.
