Brent Taylor (R) posted a video imploring Americans to unify and vote after witnessing 4 million voters turning put during a terrorist event shortly before he died. He was a good Republican, and true American.
Rest in peace.

NORTH OGDEN, Utah — The call had come again. Brent Taylor, the mayor of North Ogden and a major in the Utah National Guard, would be going to Afghanistan for his fourth deployment.
He told his constituents about it on Facebook in January, leaning into the camera to explain that he had been called to serve his country "whenever and however I can" and that he would be gone for a year, as part of a team helping to train an Afghan Army commando battalion. "Service is really what leadership is all about," he told them.
He said goodbye to his wife, Jennie, and their seven children, and turned over his municipal duties to his friend Brent Chugg. "You need to keep safe," Mr. Chugg told him. "I will," Major Taylor replied.
He did not make it home.
