Richard Taylor MBA ’65 had a gift for turning simple moments into treasured memories. When serving in the Navy, he met Katie Jo, his lifelong partner, and together they built a loving home and family. Dick’s joy came from bringing people together, whether at the family cabin he built on Scotts Flat Lake, cheering at his children’s sports events, or playing in his band, Jazz Therapy. Even after retiring, he volunteered with CARDA and Yosemite Search and Rescue, helping find lost hikers. Even into his 80s, he continued backpacking with family in the High Sierras, always up for the next adventure. Dick died on Sept. 4, 2024.
