of Batesville, AR
August 4, 1971 - September 11, 2025
Keith Dewayne Taylor went to be with Jesus on September 11 2025, at the age of 54.
Keith was born in Batesville, AR to Duncan Taylor and Madrith (Garrison) on August 4, 1971.
He was a graduate of Sulphur Rock High school. Keith was in the poultry industry for nearly 36 years, active in Management of Peco Foods during the time of his death.
Keith was a one-of-a-kind husband, father, son, uncle, Poppa T, and friend to all. Keith was a man of faith and attended Magness Missionary Baptist Church. When Keith wasn't working at Peco or on one of his rental properties he enjoyed hunting, golfing, watching Marvel movies with his boys and talking on the phone. Keith was dependable, genuine, and loyal. To all who knew him knew that he was a realist, but very empathetic and relatable. Keith had a way with words, but he also had an ear to listen. For anyone needing to turn to someone for advice, Keith was a person who could offer wisdom, encouragement, and insightfulness through his own life experience. Keith's faith in the Lord compelled him to live a life committed to loyalty, love for his family and those nearest him, forgiveness and honor.
Survivors include his wife, Cara Taylor; six sons, Zach Cahall of Bryant, Jacob Taylor of Truman, Zachary Taylor (Bethany) of Truman, Jaxson Taylor, Judson Taylor, and Jakob Taylor of Batesville; two brothers, Marshall Taylor (Maria) of Batesville, Tommy Taylor of Sulphur Rock, and four grandchildren, Ruby Cahall, Piper Cahall, Brooks Cahall, and Jana-Lee Taylor, as well as a host of nieces, nephews and close friends.
He is preceded in death by his parents, and two brothers, Rickey Taylor and Calvin Taylor.
Funeral services will be held Saturday, September 13, 2025 at 2:00pm at Magness Missionary Baptist Church under the direction of Roller-Crouch Funeral Home.
Visitation will be held one hour prior to the service.
Memorials may be made in his memory to Magness Missionary Baptist Church, 70 Waldrip Rd, Batesville, AR 72501.

I'm so sorry, Keith was a good person. I remember his old white car, it wud b him,me,and Joseph running around in Newark and make the boys there mad enough to chase us and he wud slide up in his daddy's drive way and of course his daddys police car wud b sitting there, they wud turn around and leave. We had so much fun in our younger years. Never forgotten my friend.
