Robert H. Taylor Jr., 64, of Mifflinburg Dies; Funeral Arrangements Announced

Robert H. Taylor Jr., 64, of Laurel Street in Mifflinburg died at his home on February 16, 2026, his obituary states. Funeral arrangements published by Roupp Funeral Home schedule visitation from 10 to 11 a.m. Friday at 8594 Old Turnpike Rd., Mifflinburg, with the funeral to follow at 11 a.m., officiated by Rev. Ann Zimmerman.

Born November 5, 1961, in Lewisburg, Taylor was the son of the late Robert H. Sr. and Ann (Kurtz) Taylor, according to an obituary posting by Shaw Funeral Home republished on Legacy.com on February 17, 2026. That posting includes the November 5, 1961 birthdate and Lewisburg birthplace; the marriage line in the Shaw posting is truncated and does not include the spouse’s name.

Roupp Funeral Home’s obituary lists surviving family members and close relatives. It names Arla M. Buss of New Berlin as his companion of 36 years, one daughter and son-in-law Sherry and Sidney Mowery of Northumberland, two sisters and brothers-in-law Susan and Lynn Sanders of Penns Creek and Sally and Terry Kline of Mifflinburg, six grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. Roupp’s notice also states he was preceded in death by four brothers - William, John, James and Thomas - and two sisters - Helen and Mary.

Legacy.com maintains a memorial page for Taylor titled "Welcome to Robert's Legacy," where friends and family have posted remembrances. On February 19, 2026, Sherry Mowery posted a guestbook entry that reads in full: "There are too many things to say so I will just say thank you for all the fun Saturday nights around your dining table playing cards and games and laughing with you and sharing things about days gone by. I love you and will miss you greatly. Sis"

The obituary excerpts available online include funeral details published by Roupp Funeral Home and biographical lines posted by Shaw Funeral Home. The Shaw posting indicates Taylor was married on July 13, 1981, but the posting’s text is truncated and does not specify the name of the person he was married to, while Roupp identifies Arla M. Buss as his companion. Roupp’s page also contains a separate obituary for a different Robert Taylor (born 1941, died 2021); those 1941-2021 details are distinct and have not been conflated with the 1961-2026 notice.

No cause of death or additional biographical details such as employment or community affiliations were provided in the available obituary text. Family and friends planning to attend are asked to use Roupp Funeral Home, 8594 Old Turnpike Rd., Mifflinburg, for visitation and the funeral service on Friday.
