Evelyn May Pearson Taylor, 79, of Appomattox, died peacefully at home with her daughter, Pam and family on Wednesday, June 18, 2014. She was the wife of the late Junior Taylor.

Mrs. Taylor was born in Prince William County, VA, on October 28, 1934, a daughter of the late Carrie and Richard Pearson.

She is survived by six daughters, Linda Fitze, Faye Bryant(Smiley), Reginia Eldridge, Pam Ferguson (Tom Dooley), Connie Baldwin, and Juanita Litchford (Duke); brothers, Robert Pearson and Steven Pearson; sisters, Doris Simmons(James) and Patricia Hodge; two ex-sons-in-law, Donald Fitze and Bruce Eldridge; 27 grandchildren, 45 great-grandchildren; two great-great-grandchildren; numerous nieces, nephews, friends and extended and adopted family.

She was preceded in death by two brothers, Martin and Buck Pearson; two sisters, Pansy Pearson and Gladys Hall; a grandson, Christopher Bryant; and a son-in-law, Barry Baldwin.

Evelyn and Junior enjoyed their family they made together always putting their needs behind the needs of everyone else. She continued to be a caregiver to her family after Junior's passing. She became Grandma to all who knew her, so you could say literally hundreds called her Grandma. This loss will be felt through eternity by all that loved her.

A funeral service will be held 2:00 p.m., Saturday, June 21, 2014, in Robinson Funeral Home by the Rev. Carlton Duck. Burial will follow in the Buckingham Community Cemetery.

The family will receive friends at the funeral home today from 3-5:00 p.m. and other times at the home of her daughter, Pam Ferguson.

In lieu of flowers the family suggests donations to help with Mrs. Taylor's expenses.
