Su Lin Taylor
November 07, 1962 – October 26, 2021
It is with heavy hearts that we are announcing the passing of Su Lin Taylor. Su, 58, passed away peacefully at home on the morning of October 26th, 2021, in Oakville, Ontario, after a brief but valiant battle with cancer.
Su was born on November 7th, 1962, in Hong Kong and was adopted by her loving parents Nan-Pat and Graham Taylor. After graduating from Oakville Trafalgar High school, she completed a Bachelor of Arts from McGill University, followed by a Master’s degree in Industrial Relations from the University of Toronto and was a member of the Institute of Corporate Directors. She had a successful career in Human Resources culminating in the opening of her own consulting business and participation in both charitable and for-profit boards of directors. Throughout her career, Su was well known as a coach and mentor and took great pride in helping others find success in business and life. Su’s work was very meaningful to her, and she did not retire.
Su met Larry Selby in 1987, to whom she was married in 1991.They went on to have one child, Nick, and adopt another, Lian. She was both a devoted wife and mother, and a bright light to anyone who met her. One of Su’s greatest joys in life was hosting her family and friends for holidays and would always extend an invitation to anyone needing a table to sit at. Her love of food and cooking was surpassed only by her love of travelling and exploring new places. In her downtime Su enjoyed reading, knitting and recently, vegetable gardening.
Su is survived by her husband Larry, her children Nick and Lian and her faithful dog, Winston. Visitation will be held at Kopriva Taylor Community Funeral Home beginning at 11:00am on October 30th, followed by a Service at 1:00 PM and a reception afterwards. In lieu of flowers, please consider donations to your favourite charity.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Su Lin Taylor November 07 1962 October 26 2021..
