Robert Edward Taylor III

Robert Edward Taylor, III, beloved son of Robert E. Taylor, Jr., and Rita Ferrara, he was the jewel of his mom’s life, beloved brother of Thorin Taylor, beloved nephew of Frances Perniciaro and Joseph & Julie Ferrara, adored grandson of the late Natale J. Ferrara and Hilda Ferrara & Janis Dart House and cousin Kimberly & Jason Fontan & children, to Anthony Perniciaro, Brittany and Brooke Ferrara, and John Paul and Sicily Legarde, departed this world much too early on August 30, 2014. Robert was an especially devoted friend to Elliott, Patrick, Norman, and Chief, and so many others. He shared a special relationship with David Green and Elmetta King Green. Robert attended St. Anthony of Padua elementary school and was an alter boy at the church. He completed his high school education at Lusher Charter School. He worked at LaPavillion Hotel and loved his job and all those he worked with. During his brief life on this earth, Robert blossomed into a brilliant DJ, known in the industry as DJ Kaizor. At 17, Robert was a featured DJ guest on WTUL, at 18 he became a popular DJ at the Dragon’s Den, the Maison, and other local venues until his death and had recently been invited to be a DJ at the Republic and at 19 he was the opening DJ act at House of Blues for an internationally known DJ. At 20, he started producing his own sound. Electronic music was Robert’s life and love, and he loved sharing that with his friends and fans. His love shined through his music and that love was reflected back from his audience. Robert was also making future plans for law school. He had a brilliant future ahead of him, but Jesus wanted Robert to be one of his brilliant shining stars in His Heavens. Robert will be sadly missed forever by family and friends.
