In Memory of Kenny Taylor Who died 13th August 2017 aged 56 years.

Story.

Kenny was a wonderful human being kind and caring and much loved by all who knew him. Life was not always kind to this gentleman. He had many challenges, but he tried his best to fight against them. He discovered drama and it was wonderful to see how this shy natured man became a strong and very enthusiastic actor. He played one of the disciples in The Poole Passion 2014.As ‘James’ he sat at a beautiful Last Supper Table that he helped to build along with the Action in Addiction team. He was very proud of his involvement with The Poole Passion and the group were very proud of him. He went to Italy in 2014 as a delegate to Europassion and assisted one of the older members of the group. He was very happy in Italy and soaked up the culture and sunshine. He was also an active member in ‘Uprising’ a small theatre group who worked on play a play called ‘The Nest’ that was about recovery. His famous line from this piece was ‘you’ve got to man up’ .He delivered it whilst miming boxing moves. .He also played the part of Peter Quince in an excerpt we did of a ‘Midsummer Nights Dream’ .He was the first to have his lines learnt! We will all miss Kenny’s smile and how he always was pleased to see friends. He was generous with his time and a very good friend to many. We are hoping to raise money towards Kenny’s funeral. In the event there are any monies left post the funeral then a tree or trees will be planted via The Woodland Trust as a living memory of Kenny- because of his love of wood and the great work he put into making The Last Supper Table for the play.
