Della was born Dec. 29, 1928, to Joseph and Laura (FRITZ) BUCKINGHAM. She married Eugene TAYLOR on Jan. 16, 1954, in Batavia. He passed away Jan. 25, 1989.

Della worked in the library science department at the University of Northern Iowa for 36 years. She lived in the Lockridge area for 21 years. Della was a very generous giver. She volunteered at the senior site in Lockridge. Some of her interests were crocheting, knitting, camping, fishing and gardening. Being from the Waterloo area if you were to farm John Deere equipment was a must.

Left to share Della's memories will be her siblings, Ruth HOYT of Ottumwa, Edith GAUBY of Boise, Idaho, Bernice OGDEN of Papillion, Neb., Christine BOYENGA of Atwater, Calif., and Doris EPPERSON of Fairfield; and many nieces, nephews and great-nieces nephews (sic).

Della was preceded in death by her parents, Joseph and Laura; husband, Eugene; brothers, Glen and Frank BUCKINGHAM; and sisters, Lois SHOOK, Helen NEFF, Aletha HAY and Carol NELSON (twin).
