We are saddened by the passing of Councilman Joe E. Taylor, Jr. This sudden and unexpected loss has had a major impact on our City of Columbia family.
During his tenure on City Council, Councilman Taylor was an advocate for business development, particularly as it related to small business owners and a champion of commerce. He truly believed in the greatness of our city and he was focused on making Columbia better for all citizens. We will miss his leadership and his dedication to our community.
Our prayers and sincere condolences are extended to the Taylor family. We ask that you keep them in your thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time.
