Gladys Bennett Taylor, age 90, of Brandenburg, KY, passed away at All About Home Assisted Living on Friday, March 29, 2024 with her family by her side.
She was born to Roy Granville and Margaret Grace Greer Bennett on October 22, 1933 in Battletown, KY. She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, James Taylor; sister, Ila May Riggs; brothers, Otis L. Bennett, Raymond L. Bennett, and Charles L. Bennett.
Gladys was a lifelong member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. She retired after 37 years at Olin Corp and 20 years as a hostess at Doe Run Inn.
