Celebrating the Life of Coretta Taylor With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Coretta Taylor, a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, who left this world on July 15, 2026, at the age of 83.

Coretta was a beacon of strength and resilience, embracing each day with unwavering optimism and a generous spirit.

A woman of deep faith, Coretta found solace and community at the First Baptist Of Fort Lauderdale, where she devoted countless hours to service and fellowship.

Her home was a sanctuary filled with laughter, love, and the scent of her famous homemade pies, which she delighted in sharing with neighbors and friends. Coretta’s life was a tapestry of cherished memories—trips to the beach, family gatherings, and long afternoons spent tending to her vibrant garden. A storyteller at heart, she loved recounting tales of her childhood in Florida, instilling in her family a deep appreciation for their roots and a love for the simple joys in life. The family invites all who knew Coretta to celebrate her life at a memorial service on July 25, 2026, at 10:30 a.m. at the First Baptist Of Fort Lauderdale. It will be a time to honor her memory, share stories, and find comfort in the company of those who loved her. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in Coretta’s memory to a charity of your choice, reflecting her belief in the power of giving and her desire to continue helping others, even in her absence. Coretta Taylor's legacy of love, kindness, and unwavering faith will forever remain in our hearts. She leaves behind a loving family and a community that will greatly miss her gentle spirit and generous heart. Though she is no longer with us, her spirit will forever live on in the memories we hold dear.
