Charles C. "Buddy" Taylor

peacefully passed away on May 21, 2023. He was born in Sicily Island, Louisiana, in 1931 to his

beloved parents Charles A. and Levia Taylor and siblings: Elise, Hasleteen, Margaret, George

“Sonny Boy” (all decd.). Charles had a lifelong journey of love and companionship with his

cherished wife, Earlene. Together, they celebrated 68 years of marriage before her passing in

January. Their union was the embodiment of love, devotion, and unwavering support. He served

in the U.S. Air Force, stationed in the Philippines, during the Korean War. Charles was a valued

member of IUOE local #406, and worked as a skilled crane operator at Borden Chemical until

his retirement. On Sunday afternoons, the smell of fresh fried fish and hushpuppies would fill the

air around his home, which he opened up for his family and friends to gather and grow. Charles

had an unwavering faith, finding strength and guidance in his beliefs. He and Earlene were

founding members of Fellowship Baptist Church. He is survived by his sons: Ronald Dane

(Inetta), and Joseph Dale (Shannon). Grandchildren: Ross (Emily), Lee (Jill), Dillon (Hailey),

Meghan and Dustin. Great grandchildren: Henry, Joey, Hudson, Mia, and Hayden. Come join us
