Paul Francis Taylor

Paul Francis Taylor, 95, of Lake Stevens joined his late wife of 63 years, Charlotte, in heaven on April 23, 2022. His passing was full of love, holding a hand of each of his granddaughters. Born in Sunnyside, WA, Paul was raised on the family cattle ranch, moving to West Seattle in his teens, attending W. Seattle HS before entering the US Navy at age 17. He proudly served his country as Navy Corpsman during WWII. Paul retired from Boeing in 1992 as a General Manager after 44 years, and brought his management skills into retirement to contribute to his community. He was President of Sisco Height's Community club for 30+ years, bringing in new funding sources as well as focusing on assisting those in need. Paul served as a Snohomish County Fire District 22 Commissioner for 28 years, most of the time as Board Chairman, and served on various organization boards. He was well known for his kindness, generosity and loyalty to friends, family, and community. Paul lived on the 5 acre 4 generation family farm and loved flying his 172 Cessna and raising Arabian horses. He enjoyed water and snow skiing, fishing on his boat, Happy Pappy, listening to the community club band, and playing dominoes. Though he will be missed everyday, his love will remain in our hearts forever. Paul is survived by his daughters, Sharron and Paula; his grandchildren Shane, Brooke and Hilda; 7 great-grandsons and 2 great-granddaughters whom he loved unconditionally. The burial will be at Hillcrest Cemetery, 1005 Reitin Rd, Kent WA on May 5th at 1 P.M. February 23, 1927 - April 23, 2022
