Tiana Shavon Taylor Obituary (1988

With profound sorrow, we announce the passing of our beloved Tiana Shavon Taylor, affectionately known by her loved ones as TT, who left us unexpectedly on February 7, 2025. Tiana was a beacon of light born on August 9, 1988, in Austin, Texas to Jacqueline Mitchell and James Taylor. Her spirit echoed the sentiment of Matthew 5:16, "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven". Her life was a living testament to this verse, as she radiated love, joy, and compassion to everyone around her. Tiana was an adventurous soul. She thrived on exploring new places and had a particular fondness for Houston, Texas, where she had previously lived.

Tiana had a funny streak that could light up any room and her infectious laughter will be forever missed. Her faith was an integral part of her life. She accepted Christ at an early age and remained a steadfast Baptist throughout her life.
