Taylor the composite Cape kid leaves the pitch too early
Sad Songs - “If you don’t know me by now you will never never know me.” – Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes, 1972. Taylor Marshall was a composite character of her ancestry with the soulful goodness of Capt. Rowland Marshall, the acerbic wit of her father Tom Marshall, the insight and likability of her mother Diane and a strong bond with her siblings Meredith and TR. The three siblings were all very different, a kaleidoscope of personality traits. Taylor was a mom and an aunt while working as a nurse, always an empathetic and compassionate Cape kid. Taylor passed away Aug. 11, as a result of breast cancer diagnosed years earlier. If you knew her, then you knew that story (“tell me have you seen her”), because if you did see her, you came away saying, “I saw Taylor; she looked great and seemed better.” She was a 1998 Cape grad and field hockey player; I remember her in the press box during a recent evening alumni game. Sparse commentaries, but she was just too funny, and afterward I told my former student, whom I knew since her Beebe Baby days, “Taylor or Taymar or whatever your handle, I have one basic request – that you stop being more funny and clever than me, but when I’m ready to pass the baton, you will run anchor and carry it home to the finish line.” We laughed together, and if you knew her, then you laughed together as well. I was out on the hockey pitch Tuesday morning and called Avary Miller over to express my condolences to her and the greater family. Avary’s grandmother Connie Marshall Miller is Taylor’s Aunt Connie. Know the kids in front of you and never forget those who left the pitch. Remember people at their best. Taylor in the eternal present of her spirit is one awesome child of the universe.
