Jarid Taylor lost his life en route to a 911 call on January 14, 2020. Although he loved his job, he was much more than a police officer. Jarid’s greatest accomplishment was being a father to two beautiful children. He loved to deer hunt, watch OU football and had the best sense of humor. Jarid leaves behind loving family and friends who plan to honor and remember him for the extraordinary person he was.
