Taylor Jonathan Friedman, 29, loving and beloved son, brother, uncle and coworker, died unexpectedly of natural causes on Monday, October 26, 2020.
Taylor was born on February 21, 1991, in Hollywood, Florida. He moved to Wyoming, Pennsylvania, where he graduated from Wyoming Area High School. He had been working at Domino’s Pizza as a driver, and recently had been promoted to manager.
He was known as a kind and generous person who loved to help people. Perhaps more than anything, Taylor loved his dog, a Border Collie named Antonio, whom he called his brother without an ounce of irony. He also was passionately devoted to his job and his close group of friends. He had a bright future ahead of him, with a job he adored and family and friends who loved him and cared about him deeply.
Taylor is survived by his mother, Marie Fitzpatrick Friedman; his father and stepmother, Robert Friedman and Karen Voluck; his sister, Megan Friedman; his stepsister; Lauren Voluck; his nieces, Ruth Micalizzi and Riley Diaz; his nephew, Reagan Diaz; and his brother, Antonio; as well as his uncles, aunts, and cousins.
Taylor was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Charles and Thelma Friedman; and his maternal grandparents, John and Margaret Fitzpatrick.
Relatives and Friends are respectfully invited to attend a graveside funeral service which will be held on Saturday, October 31, 2020, at 11:00 AM in Saint Vincent de Paul Roman Catholic Cemetery, Mountain Road, Larksville. Taylor’s cousin, Sister Martha Hanlon R.S.M., will conduct a prayer service, followed by words of remembrance by Taylor’s loved ones.
Those attending the graveside service are required to wear a facial covering and observe social distancing.
The viewing will be private for the immediate family.
Once restrictions are lifted, the family will host a celebration of Taylor’s life.
Funeral Arrangements have been entrusted to the care of the Wroblewski Funeral Home, Inc., 1442 Wyoming Avenue, Forty Fort.
