The two were Grover Hill high school sweethearts.&nbsp; One evening after taking in a free movie show in Grover Hill, Richard was taking Joy home in his 1941 Black Ford.&nbsp; It was in the car that evening that he asked Joy to marry him.&nbsp; Of course, she said yes!&nbsp; Who wouldn\u2019t want to marry the most \u201cgood lookin\u2019 fellow.\u201d&nbsp; According to Joy, Richard was \u201cso very kind, considerate, and caring.\u201d&nbsp; Besides, he would bring Joy a BABY RUTH BAR to school, when he\u2019d get off working at the diner during the lunch hour.&nbsp; Richard thought that Joy was the most \u201cbeautiful, kind and generous girl.\u201d&nbsp; The couple lived in the Grover Hill area until 1988.&nbsp; Now up to that point Richard was a farmer, construction worker, wood worker, school bus driver, and school board member for 12 years.&nbsp; Joy enjoyed being a homemaker and seamstress.&nbsp; Their only child, daughter, Tonya Joy Taylor came into the world on May 3, 1955. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1988, the family moved to Florida.&nbsp; Joy worked for Eckerd Drug Store and Richard was a tour bus driver.&nbsp; While in Florida they took up square dancing, which they did for 10 years.&nbsp; In 1995, it was time to say goodbye to Florida and move back to Ohio.&nbsp; The couple then decided to build their own home with their own hands and so they did.&nbsp; In 1995 they settled in Van Wert, Ohio, where they live to this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Richard and Joy\u2019s 75 years are a testament to their love and devotion for one another and to the hope that they have in Christ Jesus.&nbsp; All their nieces, nephews, great nieces, great nephews, great-great nieces and great-great nephews have reason to celebrate this wonderful couple.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nolan Richard Taylor and Joy Isabell Sanderson were wed May 29, 1948.&nbsp;
