Troy Lee Taylor

September 3, 1935 - April 26, 2022

Troy Lee Taylor, 86, passed away on Tuesday, April 26, 2022, at Winston Medical Center Nursing Home in Louisville, Mississippi. Graveside services and interment will be 12:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 27 in the Poplar Flat Cemetery with Bro. Doug Wise officiating. Visitation will be the day of the service from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Nowell-Massey Funeral Home. Troy was born September 3, 1935, to Ervin and Willie Bell Roberts Taylor in Louisville. He was a member of Poplar Flat Baptist Church. Troy worked as a welder at Taylor Machine Works until his retirement after 39 years of service. He was an avid outdoorsman; a modern-day mountain man! He loved hunting and trapping; and he enjoyed fishing so much that it earned him the nickname “Catfish!” Troy is survived by his children: Kim Ming and husband Keith of Louisville, Chad Taylor also of Louisville, LeeAnne Kilgore and husband Jason of Chattanooga, Tennessee, and Mark Nowell and wife Reba of Ackerman, Mississippi. One of his greatest joys was being “Papaw” to his grandson Cody (Anna) Ming; his three great-granddaughters: Mila, Emmy, and Joy Hayes Ming; and he was looking forward to the birth of his fourth great-granddaughter in May. Troy also leaves behind loving nieces, nephews, other family members, and friends. He was preceded in death by his wife Brenda Taylor; the mothers of his children Betty Jo Taylor and Lynn Taylor; his son Rex Taylor; his parents; and four siblings: Loretta Hawkins, Frances Parker, Gail Tabor, and an infant twin brother, Roy Taylor. The family requests that memorials in honor of Troy be given to Poplar Flat Baptist Church, P. O. Box 684, Louisville, MS 39339. Services are under the direction of Nowell-Massey Funeral Home, 724 North Columbus Avenue, Louisville, MS. Memories and condolences may be shared with the family by signing the guest register at www.nowellmasseyfuneralhome.com.
