Doylene Taylor

October 29, 1933 - November 17, 2020

Doylene Webb Taylor, aged 87, passed away peacefully with her family by her side on Tuesday, November 17, 2020, at her home in Albertville, AL. Doylene was born on October 29, 1933, in Guin, AL, to the late Vander E. Webb and Eva Lucindy Flippo Webb. She often reminisced about her peaceful childhood on a farm as the eldest of six children who helped to harvest a bounty of crops. Religious faith was a central part of family life. She played piano in a local church and later in life would still play a boogie-woogie, her manicured nails tapping joyfully on the keys. Doylene’s greatest loves were her family and pets. She was enthralled by the beauty of flowers and was an accomplished gardener and was proud of her tomatoes and other edibles, as well as the beautiful home she created. Doylene was a compassionate, beautiful, loving woman and will be missed terribly. Along with her parents, Doylene is preceded in death by her husband, Fred Taylor, a son, David Lee Hallman, two brothers, William Eugene Webb and James L. Webb, and a grandson, Noah James Rimlinger. She is survived by her children Denise Eddy Rimlinger (Jim) of Moreland, GA; Deirdre Rae Hallman (Erik Hoffman) of Oakland, CA; Donald Ray Hallman, Jr. (Paula) of Columbus, OH; grandchildren Ami Hicks (Elliot), Allison Bryant (Dana) and Adam Moss (Lindsey); 12 great-grandchildren; her sisters Sheryl Wilds (Nathan) and Edris Pledger (Ken); and a brother, Gerald Webb (Frankie). A graveside celebration of Doylene’s life will take place on Sunday, November 22, 2020, at 2:00 PM at Oak Hill Cemetery in Newnan, GA, with Pastor Todd Slade officiating. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that memorial contributions be made in Doylene’s name to the Alzheimer’s Association at ALZ.org or the ASPCA at ASPCA.org.
