In Memory of Taryn's Loving Heart

Taryn Nicole Taylor—affectionately known by her family as their little stick of dynamite, “TNT”—left this world far too soon at just 17 years old.

A senior at Rancho Buena Vista High School, Taryn was a dedicated athlete, participating in golf and track while also serving as the water girl for the football team. Beyond sports, she was incredibly talented and artistic—she could cook, paint, make jewelry, and design clothes with effortless creativity.

Taryn was a beautiful soul—sensitive, smart, and full of laughter. She had an intuitive heart, always attuned to the emotions of her friends and family. Her love for animals was deep and genuine—she cried whenever one was hurt. She found joy in the little things, from receiving flowers to leaving silly selfies on her loved ones’ phones just to make them smile.

Though we take comfort in knowing that Taryn is now free from pain, her family's grief is immeasurable. If you are able to contribute toward medical and funeral expenses, it would mean the world. While we cannot take away their sorrow, we can help ease the financial burden so they can focus on healing. Your kindness and support are deeply appreciated.
