Parents: Granville and Violet Edmonston

She met her husband, Bernard "Skeets" Taylor, there and they were married in 1958. Guyla completed her nursing training and traveled with Skeets while he served in the USAF. She used her training working in hospitals and completed her career as the nurse for a private practice physician where the couple settled in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

Guyla and Skeets enjoyed traveling together. They celebrated a milestone wedding anniversary in Hawaii, took a WWII tour overseas, and often made short trips with a square dance club. Dr. Zimmerman, also a pilot, flew them to Alaska for another fun adventure. Of course, they willingly traveled to see their kids and grandkids as often as they could.

Guyla had many hobbies over the years. She collected the traditional Kansas windmills, she created cards and gifts with rubber stamping, and she really loved her gardens.

While Guyla had a heart to help and care for many, she was especially dedicated to her family. That family also included her constant canine companion, Suki, who has now joyfully joined Barb's family.

She is survived by two daughters, and four grandchildren.

Guyla is preceded in death by her husband; son, Barry; parents; sister Kathy; and brother, Loyal.
