Taft was a great guy and so very funny. There was never a dull moment when Taft was in the room. I'll miss him and his crazy humor. God Speed.

I worked with Taft since he came to the Macey's store in Tooele. He always made my day with his great sense of humor. I remember the las day I worked with him. He shared his candy (Runts) with me, giving me the ones he didn't like...he said they left a bad taste in his mouth. Thanks Taft. I will never forget the way he would nudge the one side of his glasses up. Will miss you buddy.

Taft was a wonderful cousin and a fantastic and funny friend. He will be missed greatly. So many of my childhood memories are of my cousins and I eating ice cream at my grandparent's table, or singing, dancing, and playing music at get-togethers. I will never forget him, he was the greatest.
