Sending my condolences to the family during this difficult time.  May God continue to heal and comfort you all. It was an honor to be friends with Ms. Shirley and a pleasure to know her and love her. She will definitely be missed but never forgotten. The family will be in my thoughts and prayers. 

Ms. Maxine, you will always be remembered and hold a dear place in my heart.  You were such an unselfish and giving person.  My fondest memories consist of you and Sheila providing rides to church for my grandparents, brother and me.  We would gather in my home after Sunday morning service and my grandmother would prepare Sunday dinner.  We would eat and fellowship then off to the 3:00 pm Sunday service we would go.  I never heard you complain about giving  of your time because there was so much more you did for so many people.  I appreciate you allowing me to spend so much time with you and Sheila and giving me a big sister ❤️.

I will miss you so much Ms. Taylor, but God has called you to a better place. You and my mom were truly sisters. You did everything together. You have been in my life for as long as I can remember.  I especially enjoyed our short family trips together.  I remember when we went to Arkansas to see a vacation home in the mountains.  You, Shelia, my Mom and Kevin got in our big van and took off.  I forgot who was driving but the van was so close to the edge of a cliff as it was turning around, but we went and I knew that I was with two brave women.  Ms. Taylor you have inspired me and many more to be strong and don't be afraid to try something different. 
Ms. Shirley Taylor is now on the adventure of a life time in Heaven. I'll see you again.  Love, Tam

Aunt Maxine or Aunt "Mac" was the most kind hearted person who always left her home open to family. I remember coming over here after elementary school with Garrett and Corey (my brothers) to get a good home cooked meal! Her foot is still stuck off in the pot! My aunt mac would always tell me this story everytime I saw her. Goes like this "hey Alex, how you doing? You don't remember this but when you was a baby I use to go, who is that Chinese looking baby 👀? " Lol I'll never forget that and I'll never forget how scared I was of Max, your dog, as a kid. Though I can say he knew when to listen to his momma so there was no real worries there. Too many memories to share about you Aunt Mac but I love you dearly and I can't wait to be in your presence again. I love you and miss you. Rest in Paradise.

Granny, 

There is so much I will miss about you. What I will miss the most is our daily text and talks, your openness to learn something new, our family trips, and holiday gatherings. Our circle was small but mighty. My days won’t be the same and I will think of you always. Your angel poo will miss his FaceTime with his great gran. Granny I will love you always ❤️

And Aunt Mac would go "who is that Chinese looking baby??" Haha also, everytime me and my brother came over there after school at Brownsville Road, we would eat GOOOOOOD and she would always tell me that's what she use to say to me when I was a baby. I love you aunt Mac and may you rest in paradise. Till I see you again. 

Love,
Alex Holloway

Ms Shirley, I don't even know how to start this, other than to say that I'm am and going to miss you so much,  our weekly talks, your funny comments, just you. My heart is hurting so bad, but I thank you for being my best friend. Rest now in God's arms, your work is done here. Prayers Unlimited for Shelia and your family 🙏. 

One of the strongest people I have ever    met. So beautiful , so strong , so loved and I will miss her.

I will always remember Ms. Taylor as a caring, loving and Highly skilled nurse.  She would help you no matter how long it took. She was fun and joyful to be around.  We could always count on her.  She is missed but never forgotten.
