Memories of David Taylor MP 1946-2009


It is with deep sadness we read of the sudden and unexpected death of our local MP, David Taylor. He had been on a walk at Calke Abbey on Boxing Day when he suffered a heart attack and later died in Burton Hospital. In the year we had known him, he had impressed us with his down-to-earth manner and straightforward no-nonsense approach to politics. We were grateful that he found time in his busy schedule to attend Graham's induction service at Ashby Baptist Church and that he brought a personal greeting. It was clear to us that his strong Christian commitment was the motivation behind his tireless work for those he had been elected to serve. May God comfort his family and bless all those who were touched in some way by his life and work.

  1. Sorry to hear of David's sudden death. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and we hope that the knowledge that through public service he helped and improved the lives of many people in Leicestershire and beyond will be a consolation to them.
