Roger K. Taylor 72 of West Chester passed away on Tuesday, September 6, 2022 at Chester County Hospital with his family by his side. He was the husband of Linda (Boden) Taylor, sharing 50 years of marriage. 

Born in Martinsville, VA on March 1, 1950, he was the son of the late Robert Keith and Susie (Pritchett) Taylor. Roger graduated from Abington High School and went on to receive his BA from East Stroudsburg University. He was a veteran of the United States Army. Roger worked as a technical specialist in hospital laboratory equipment for various companies. He was a member of Downingtown United Methodist Church, past District Governor of Rotary International, former President of Chester County Astronomical Society, and a former member of the Downingtown School Board. Roger enjoyed amateur astronomy, cooking and birding with his wife, camping, photography and participating in amateur theater, including Barley Sheaf in Lionville. Always one to host people at his home, his deep, resonant voice and homemade meatballs will certainly be missed at the annual spaghetti dinner that followed Thanksgiving. Most of all, Roger was a loving husband, father, grandfather and brother who loved spending time with his family, especially his grandchildren.

Surviving in addition to his wife Linda are his children Hillary Taylor-Hartle (Christoffer Taylor-Hartle) of East Greenwich, RI, Adrienne Taylor (Andrei Baumann) of Providence, RI; grandchildren Corwin, Kai and Moriah; sister Michelle Taylor Zdankiewicz (the late William A. Zdankiewicz, Jr.); and nephew Robert Zdankiewicz.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, September 24, 2022 at 11 AM at Downingtown United Methodist Church, 751 E Lancaster Avenue, Downingtown, PA 19335. A time of visitation will be held from 10 AM - 11 AM at the church.
