Larry S. Taylor was born on March 13, 1959, in Minden to Willis and Rose Marie (Bergstrom) Taylor. He grew up in the Minden area and attended school at Minden Public Schools, graduating with the class of 1977.

He was united in marriage to Cynthia Leider on March 25, 1995, in Mitchell, NE and to this union, two children were born: Shae and Colton. The family made their home in Minden where he was a dedicated farmer alongside his father for many years.

Larry was an avid motorcycle enthusiast, and he and Cindy rode his Harley to Sturgis annually. Although often busy on the farm, Larry loved a good bargain at a garage sale and auctions with his father. Larry loved rock music and always had Hair Nation playing on the radio. He was the hardest worker you’d meet and always loved to fix things with his hands. He will be remembered by his sense of humor and childish grin.

Those left to cherish his memory include his wife, Cindy Taylor of Minden; daughter, Shae Taylor (Zach Lomison) of Lincoln; son, Colton Taylor of Minden; as well as extended relatives and close friends.
