Dr. Taylor recently attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrating the opening of the new Inter-Faith Council on Social Service at SECU (IFC @ SECU) Community House in Chapel Hill. As Vice President of the IFC Board, Dr. Taylor has contributed numerous hours to the planning of the building, and serves on the building and grounds committee.

an evening at Clemson University

Dr. Taylor recently took a road trip to Clemson, South Carolina to visit his alma mater, Clemson University.  He was asked to speak to students in the pre-dental club on campus.   After a nearly two hour discussion on everything from volunteering to ethics, Dr. Taylor held a question/answer session.   He said he was lucky to have a very attentive group with lots of great questions!

Thank you.....

As many of you are aware of, our office suffered a devastating loss on June 24, 2013.  Drew Rockett, our dental assistant and front desk coordinator, passed away unexpectedly.  Drew had been part of our practice family for over ten years.

Below is a copy of her obituary:

Drew Anne Rockett, 52 years old, of Pittsboro, North Carolina passed away at her home on Monday, June 24, 2013.  She was born in San Diego, California to the late Russell Cederlund and Berlin Mills Cederlund.  

Drew is survived by her husband Greg Rockett; her children and step-children, Taylor Emerson of New Orleans, Louisiana, Corey Emerson of Greenville, North Carolina, Ellery Emerson of Wilmington, North Carolina, Robert Rockett and wife Sabrea of Pittsboro, North Carolina; Rachel Rockett of Carrboro, North Carolina; her grandson, Gavin Blu Rockett of Pittsboro, North Carolina; and her brothers, Doran Cederlund and Joel Johnson and sister, Palmer Watts.  She was predeceased by her daughter, Schuyler Emerson in 2012.

Drew’s life was devoted to caring for others.  She touched many lives that were blessed to know her bright smile, infectious laugh and caring manner.  She deeply loved her family and cherished many special friendships.  She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and friend who had a special place in her heart for children and animals.  She loved daisies, sunflowers, roller coasters and the rain.  Drew was known for her creative spirit and talent for crafting, cooking, and healing stray or injured animals, many of whom became permanent residents in her home. Drew was a special person that will always be remembered.  She has found peace.

The family will receive visitors at the Rockett home in Pittsboro, North Carolina on Saturday, June 29 from 4:00 to 6:00 PM.   At 5:00 PM, visitors may offer special memories or remembrances of Drew during an informal memorial service.

The family asks that in lieu of flowers donations may be made to Piedmont Wildlife Center or your local SPCA.

We would like to say thank you for all of your support and thoughtfulness during this difficult time.  Although it has been hard to adjust, we are grateful to have such community support.
