Life Story
Beatrice Elizabeth Taylor Lane daughter of the late Olivia Marie Campbell Taylor and Milton Bernard Taylor. Sister Brenda Taylor and brother Maurice Taylor preceded her in death. Beatrice Elizabeth Taylor was born December 17,1953, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania along with her twin brother Bernard Robert Taylor.
Betty was educated in the Philadelphia School system she and her twin Bobby graduated from West Philadelphia High School. In high school she met and fell in love with her high school sweetheart, John Montgomery. A love child was created, David Anthony Taylor in 1972. Throughout her life she was a loving, adoring and attentive mother. Betty while being a full-time mom, was also employed as a nurse for many years, until she had some health issues. She worked in the nursing field mainly and private, but also mental health, terminal children, hospice, and surgical recovery.
Betty cared for the elderly providing warmth, friendship, fellowship, and treated them with dignity. She fed, clothed and sheltered homeless or misplaced youth and adults alike. Providing a solid example, a brief respite and a gentle or not so gentle nudge back into the world.
She was Untied in Holy Matrimony to Michael Lane on October 17, 2020. They shared a home in Wynnefield Heights along with their Favorite dog Prince Nickey Lane. The Beautiful Beatrice Elizabeth Taylor Lane always spoke with a constant and faithful focus. She loved her family and friends, was protective, nurturing, sheltering and defending. Betty loved people, loved doing for them, and would not hesitate to give when someone needed anything even if it was her last.
Betty accepted Christ and at an early age and would take her family along with her to church. Dedicated to her faith she had always been active and involved in the church. Betty was a faithful member of Mt. Calvary Family Worship Center (Affectionately Known as Sister Bea). She served on the Nurses, Missionary, and Intercessory Prayer Ministries. She was genuinely a good-hearted person. The joy of Betty's sense of humor, her laughter and ability to listen to others, was what made people love her. Sister Bea touched a lot of lives.
Very quietly our Heavenly Father took her home on January 8, 2022. Betty leaves to cherish her memory: Husband Michael Lane, Son David Anthony Taylor and daughter- in-law (Veronica), granddaughter's Samih Taylor and Amiah Taylor, grandson Kahveke Taylor, Her TWIN Brother Milton Robert (Bobby) Taylor and sister-in-law (Barbara Jean), three brother-in-laws: Vincent Lane, Marcus Lane and sister-in-law(Toneata), Carlos Lane and sister-in-law (Lorinda) and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
