RICKY “RT” WILLIAM TAYLOR

Walhalla, SC– Ricky “RT” Taylor passed away on November 18, 2022, at the age of 67, in his hometown of Walhalla, South Carolina. He peacefully left this Earth while surrounded by family. He was born to parents Paul L Taylor and Frances C Taylor in Seneca, SC.  He is survived by a daughter: Teara Barnwell (Walhalla, SC); two older brothers: Doug Taylor (Walhalla, SC) and Terry Taylor (Oak Island, NC); and son-in-law Christopher Barnwell (Walhalla, SC). He was a proud Papa to three grandsons: Colten Price, Easton Barnwell, and Declan Barnwell. He was predeceased by his parents: Paul and Frances Taylor of Walhalla, SC.

 

Rick was a father, brother, grandfather, friend, farmer, and golfer; a simple man of few words with a giving heart that wanted to see others happy.  His family will remember his dry sense of humor that kept them laughing and miss having someone they knew would always be there for them. If Rick had something that could help someone else, he gladly passed it on to the person in need.
