Sept. 10, 1944 – July 17, 2026
There are some people who leave footprints so deeply planted in the hearts of those they love that they can never be erased. Alliee Taylor was one of those people.
He was a devoted husband, a loving father, a proud Paw-Paw, a treasured father-in-law, brother, and friend. His greatest joy was never found in material things—it was found in the people he loved, the land he cared for, and the life he built through hard work, faith, and dedication.
Alliee’s greatest love story began at a rodeo in San Antonio, Texas, where he met the love of his life, Lucille. It didn’t take long for them to know they belonged together. After a year of dating, they were married and began a beautiful journey that would last 62 wonderful years. Together they built a life filled with love, laughter, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment.
Soon after they married, Alliee accepted a job with Chevron in Baytown, Texas. They moved there in 1965 before making their forever home in Mont Belvieu in 1972, where they raised their family and created a lifetime of cherished memories.
Three years into their marriage, they welcomed their son, Doug, and four years later their daughter, Tammi. Being a husband and father wasn’t just part of who Alliee was—it was who he was. His family was always his first priority.
Alliee believed in working hard and providing for those he loved. He spent 27 years with Chevron, where he built lifelong friendships with coworkers who became like family. Whether he was playing golf or enjoying time with friends at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo Cook-Off, he valued the relationships he made throughout his career. After retiring from Chevron in 1992, he continued working for Wasson Instruments until the COVID pandemic brought his working years to a close.
Although he worked hard, everyone who knew Alliee knew where his heart truly belonged—on the farm. There was nothing that brought him more peace than being outside with his cattle. Caring for his land, checking on the herd, mowing the pasture, or simply spending the day outdoors filled him with happiness. It wasn’t just a hobby; it was part of who he was.
Alliee genuinely enjoyed experiencing different cultures and was always excited to return home with stories and photographs to share with his family. Those travels became another chapter in a life filled with curiosity, hard work and adventure.
That same love carried over to his children. Alliee spent countless hours helping Doug and Tammi raise steers and heifers, traveling to livestock shows and rodeos, always cheering them on and teaching them the value of responsibility, commitment, and hard work. Those weren’t just years spent showing animals—they were years spent building a family and creating memories that would last forever.
When his grandchildren came along, Alliee found one of life’s greatest blessings.
Becoming “Paw-Paw” was a title he wore with pride. Justin, Bryson, and Dailynn brought a special light into his life. He loved attending their games, school events, and activities, celebrating every accomplishment right alongside them. They never had to wonder if Paw-Paw would be there—he always showed up. His quiet presence, steady encouragement, and unconditional love made each of them feel deeply cherished.
Every year, Alliee looked forward to heading to South Texas with his lifelong best friend, Mike McCumber, for deer hunting season. Those trips were more than hunting—they were about friendship, laughter, stories shared around camp, and traditions that became treasured memories.
If you knew Alliee, you knew a man who rarely asked for recognition. He wasn’t loud or boastful. Instead, he showed his love through his actions. He worked hard, kept his word, cared deeply for his family, and was always willing to lend a helping hand. His strength was quiet, his heart was generous, and his love was constant.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Carlton Taylor and Ellen Taylor. Brother Dwight Taylor.
Left to cherish his memory are his beloved wife and best friend of 62 years, Lucille Taylor; his son, Doug Taylor and wife Connie; his daughter, Tammi Taylor-Gillum and husband Joseph; his treasured grandchildren, Justin, Bryson, and Dailynn; bonus grandchildren Kylie and Jordan, his brother, Donnie Taylor; his sister, Lori Amason and husband Troy; along with many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and countless friends who were blessed to know him.
While our hearts are broken, we are forever grateful for the years we were given with Alliee. His life reminds us that the greatest legacy isn’t measured by wealth or accomplishments, but by the love we give, the family we build, and the lives we touch.
His work here is done. The cattle are in greener pastures, the fields are forever peaceful, and he is finally home with his Lord. Though we will miss him every day, we find comfort in knowing that love like his never truly leaves us. It lives on in every story shared, every lesson remembered, every family gathering, and every heart he helped shape.
Until we meet again, we will carry your love with us.
You will always be our husband, our dad, our Paw-Paw, and our hero.
