"Frank" Taylor, of Oviedo, Fla., formerly of the Holy Cross area, died at 11:21 p.m., Sunday, July 5, 2009, surrounded by his family. Services will be at 10 a.m. Saturday, July 11, at Holy Cross Catholic Church, Holy Cross, with the Rev. Raymond Burkle officiating.

Friends may call from 2 to 8 p.m. Friday, July 10, at Kramer Funeral Home, Holy Cross, where there will be a parish scripture service at 4 p.m. He was born on May 6, 1938, in Holy Cross, the 3rd of 12 children of Francis and Dorothy (Rea) Taylor. He married Mary E. Connelly on Dec. 27, 1963, at St. Columbkille's Church in Dubuque. He graduated from Loras College in 1960, taught at DeLasalle High School in Minneapolis and then entered the Navy in 1961, where he was an S2D pilot on the USS Essex for five years. He then flew for Northwest Airlines for 29 years, where he reached the rank of B747-400 Captain. Frank loved his family, his faith, Iowa farming and his flying. He was an avid letter writer, on his long trips away from home. He wrote to those who were ill, in nursing homes, alone or just in need of encouragement. There were no strangers in Frank's eyes, only friends he hadn't yet been introduced to. Frank always showed great respect for people, especially for the elderly, and he loved to visit with them. He took the neighborliness that he experienced in his youth and shared that experience with everyone he met, and especially with those who lived near him. Frank will forever be remembered for his compassion, his wisdom and his brave journey through life and death. Surviving are his wife, Mary; two sons, Tom, of Cedar Rapids, and Mike (Jennifer), of Bloomington, Minn.; twin daughters, Janeen Graf, of Louisville, Ky., and Kathy (Paul) Jordan. of Oviedo; seven grandchildren, Ryan, Natalie and Nicole Graf, Miles Link, Jon Paul and Anna Jordan, and Andy Taylor; six brothers, Ray (Joan), of Dubuque, Charles (Lois), of Dyersville, Joe (Karol) and John (Barb), of Holy Cross, Jim (Marie), of Center Junction, and Paul (Sue), of Zwingle; five sisters, Mary (Wayne) Kahle, of Hazel Green, Wis., Helen (Scotty) Thomas, of San Francisco, Jane (Ken) Rausch, of Knoxville, Tenn., Bridget (Robert) Kluesner, of St. Paul, Minn., and Patricia (Mike) Thies, of Peosta; 28 nieces and nephews; two brothers-in-law, Eddie Connelly, of Egan, Minn., Bob Connelly, of Dubuque, and a sister-in-law, Sharon Fehling, of Eden Prairie, Minn. He was preceded in death by his parents, Francis and Dorothy Taylor; his father- and mother-in-law, Dr. Edgar and Pearl Connelly, and a sister-in-law, Jean Connelly.
