Lindsey "Tootie" Taylor Obituary (1948 - 2017)

Lindsey Taylor (Tootie) was the only son of Alice Taylor and was born April 6, 1948 in Richmond, Virginia. He departed this life quietly on July 7, 2017 at Chippenham Hospital in Richmond, Virginia. Tootie married the love of his life, Carolyn Brockington on September 14, 1979. She preceded him in death on May 22, 2007. They had two children, son Lindsey E. Brockington and daughter Tonya Y. Brockington. Tootie enjoyed watching television...lots of game shows, (Family Feud), for sure and especially NBA basketball and NFL football. His devoted love for the San Francisco 49ers always made for some good trash talking every football season. He also enjoyed spending time with his family and friends. Tootie touched the lives of many. For most he will be remembered for being a character...someone who could make you laugh when you needed it most. He will also be remembered as a confidant for many. Anyone who knew him also knew that they could talk to him about anything. He was a great listener, he was accepting and didn't judge, and that's what made him special. Lindsey Taylor leaves to cherish his memory, his son Lindsey E. Brockington, daughter Tonya Y. Brockington, two grandsons Calvin L. Brockington, Jaeden D. Brockington, and countless friends.
