Shawn D. Taylor's Obituary
Shawn D. Taylor, age 60, passed away Monday, March 18, 2024. He was born
September 28, 1963 in Muskegon. Shawn worked as a radiator mechanic for over
30 years along with his father at A1 Radiator. He was an accomplished musician,
playing Bass and guitar, for many bands over the years playing classic country
and bluegrass. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, and playing pool, and could fix
anything and everything. Shawn was a life member of the VFW Post #7729 where
he had been a former Chaplain. He was also a strong believer and enjoyed
watching the online services at Beacon Light Community Church. But most of all,
he loved spending time with his family more than anything. He will be greatly
missed by all who knew him. On July 27, 1995, he married Christine Jo Johnston
in Muskegon, and she survives him along with four sons: Christopher Wright,
Brandon Wright, Douglas Taylor, and Antonio Taylor; three grandchildren:
McKenzie, Dylan, and Eli. He is also survived by his mother and four sisters.
Shawn was preceded in death by his father, Douglas Taylor. A Celebration of
Shawn’s Life will be held at a later date. Donations to the family to help offset funeral expenses will be appreciated.
