“Mr. Taylor is our choir director and loves his students soooo much. A few years ago he was diagnosed with cancer. He has now gotten over the cancer, but since then there have been 2 more people in his family with cancer (his son and his wife). Even through all these trials he still focuses on getting us ready for our concerts. He somehow stays so cheery every day when it would be way easier to be grumpy about everything wrong going on in his life. Mr. Taylor is certainly a favorite teacher of many people and he definitely deserves to be recognized.”
