Heart
It is with shattered hearts and deep sorrow that we remember and honor the life of Taylor Armstrong Brooks—a beloved daughter, sister, wife, mother, and friend. Words will never be enough to capture the light she brought into our lives or the depth of the grief we now feel in her absence. Her sudden passing has left an irreplaceable void that will echo through our family and community for the rest of our lives.
Taylor was more than just a beautiful soul—she was a radiant force. She had a rare ability to make everyone feel seen, heard, and loved. Her laughter could fill a room, and her smile had the power to warm the coldest of days. She gave so freely of herself—her time, her compassion, her strength—and never asked for anything in return. To know Taylor was to know unconditional love and unwavering loyalty.
To her family, Taylor was the glue that held everything together. She had a bond with each person that was deeply personal and completely unique. As a daughter, she was devoted and respectful; as a sister, she was a best friend and constant confidante. As a wife, she was a partner in every sense of the word—strong, selfless, and supportive. And as a mother, she was unmatched. Her children were her world, and she dedicated her life to nurturing, protecting, and loving them with every fiber of her being.
Taylor also had an unshakable faith and a quiet wisdom that often guided others, even when she was facing her own storms. She had a heart for service—never turning away someone in need, always showing up with a helping hand, a kind word, or a thoughtful gesture. Her presence was a gift to everyone who crossed her path.
As we sit with this grief, stunned by the weight of such a devastating loss, we are also deeply grateful for the time we had with Taylor. Though her life was tragically cut short, the impact she made in her time here will be felt for generations. She showed us what it means to love fiercely, to give generously, and to live authentically.
In her memory, we hold close every moment, every laugh, every hug, and every conversation. We will speak her name often. We will share her stories. We will make sure her children know just how remarkable their mother was.
To Taylor—thank you for everything. Thank you for loving us, for inspiring us, and for being the heart of our family. You will be so missed. Our family will not be the same without you. A big part of us will be missing from here on out.
We will carry you with us always.
Rest peacefully, beautiful soul. You were—and always will be—so deeply loved.
