Hurbert Dwayne Taylor, a beloved husband, father, and grandfather, passed away peacefully on October 18, 2026. Born on August 4, 1966, in Fort Worth, Texas, Hurbert was the cherished son of Hurbert Taylor and Joyce Taylor. His life was a testament to love, dedication, and resilience, and he leaves behind a legacy that will continue to inspire all who knew him.
Hurbert spent his formative years in Fort Worth, where he was nurtured by the love and guidance of his parents and grandparents. His grandparents, John L.

A man of deep faith, Hurbert was a dedicated member of his community and a proud pillar of his family.
