Alice Faye Taylor, age 74, of Franklin, Tennessee, passed away peacefully on October 27, 2026. She was born in Lawrence County, Tennessee, to the late James Warren Blackwood and Lucille Moore Blackwood.
Alice enjoyed reading and often sent her husband, John, to the library to bring home books for her to enjoy. She was a fan of Tennessee Vols football, Southwest and Indian styles, loved traveling with her beloved sisters. Alice and John were former owners of Franklin Auto Trim and enjoyed weekends spent on the Buffalo River and road trips out west.
Alice was a woman of Christian faith, and her family finds comfort in knowing she is home with Jesus and reunited with John, surely giving him a great big hug.
She is survived by her sisters, Marie (Mike) Echols and Barbara (Danny) Henson; brother, Howard (Brenda) Blackwood; stepdaughters, Stephannie (Randy) Montgomery and Emily Taylor; grandchildren, Taylor Montgomery and Ryan (Natalie) Montgomery; great-granddaughter, Eleanor Ruth; beloved dog, Daisy; and numerous nieces and nephews.
