Obituary

Alice Marie Taylor, 86, of South Beaver Twp., passed away on Wednesday, June 26, 2024 at Heritage Valley-Beaver, surrounded by the love of her family.

Born on May 8, 1938 in Pittsburgh, PA, she was the daughter of the late Clarence and Rita (Hyland) Friedel.

As a young girl living in South Beaver, Alice loved spending time on her horse “Cookie” and later worked at the Black Hawk Golf Course lunch counter. She graduated from Beaver Falls High School and went on to work as a secretary for Paul Brooks and Sons. Alice had a passion for social events including dances and parties. In April of 1959, she married the love of her life and devoted herself to being a wife and loving mother of three sons.

Alice was a woman of faith and served as a Bible school teacher at the First Presbyterian Church in Darlington, PA. She was involved in various community activities such as being a Den Mother for troop 409, participating in the Blackhawk PTA, and supporting her children in baseball and football. She also volunteered on the election board for South Beaver Township for many years.

A significant and meaningful part of Alice’s life was working alongside her husband and two sons in their family business, where she served as Secretary for Carl Taylor and Sons. She loved flying with her eldest son, anytime and to any destination.

Alice adored the holidays and dressing for every occasion. She loved traveling, spending time with all of her family and her dear friends, and participating in activities over the years such as bowling and card clubs.

Alice was a deeply cherished mother-in-law.  She was a warm, treasured grandmother and great-grandmother, relishing the opportunity to spoil her grandchildren, including a recent shopping trip with her great-granddaughter Lilly.

She was a loving person, full of life, never wanting to miss out on any moment. She often commented on how blessed she was to live such a full and wonderful life. She will be dearly missed by many.

In addition to her parents, Alice was preceded in death by a son, Daniel L. Taylor, two brothers, Lloyd and Raymond Schmeltz, and a sister Lorraine (Schmeltz) Coon.

Alice is survived by her loving husband of 65 years H. Carl Taylor; two sons, Greg (Jamie) Taylor and John (Cheryl) Taylor; six grandchildren, Gregory, Justin, Tom, Ashley, Jake, Kelsey; five great- grandchildren; and a daughter-in-law, Donna Taylor.

Friends will be received on Friday, June 28th from 2-4pm and 6-8pm in the GABAUER-LUTTON FUNERAL HOME- 117 Blackhawk Rd., Beaver Falls PA 15010 where a service will be held on Saturday, June 29th at 11am. Rev. Lee Bittner will officiate.
