TAYLOR, Dennis
Posted: June 29th, 2024 TAYLOR Dennis Taylor passed away on Friday, June 21, 2024 in Lethbridge – taken away far too early after a bout with early onset dementia. He turned 64 on May 22nd and is survived by his spouse and good friend – Lori Macalees.
Dennis was born and raised in Lethbridge, son of Bill and Peggy and big brother to Debbie. Dennis loved sports – particularly hockey and baseball when growing up. He became an avid golfer as an adult; golfing at Henderson, Magrath, down in Montana and many U.S. States. He golfed countless rounds with his Dad early in the morning at Henderson, enjoying the duel as competitive players.
Dennis worked in a number of different industries over the years – from running his own Old Dutch route to some long haul driving gigs and Lethbridge Transit. He always had a keen eye for investment opportunities and was game to give the next deal a try.
He loved riding motorcycles, which began as a teenager – riding his “bike” from Lethbridge to Elkwater, working for a couple of summers at the family-owned Elkwater garage. Dennis loved hitting the open road on a great summer day!
Dennis was just entering his retirement years – and didn’t get a chance to enjoy the fruits of his labour with Lori. He passed away with both Lori and sister Debbie at his side. He will be missed at family gatherings by nieces and nephews – Kristy, Cassidy, Bryce, Cole and Katie!
Don’t worry about flowers or donations – enjoy a round of golf and remember that life is too short to worry about the score!
