Cleo Taylor Obituary
Whatever my lot, THOU has taught me to say;
It is well, it is well with my soul.

The Obsequies for
Our Matriarch
Beloved Mother, Saint of God and Angel Voice
Ms. Cleo Taylor
With tremendous sorrow, we bow to the will of our Heavenly Father as we humbly announce the unforeseen, yet
triumphant journey of our beloved Mother, Ms. Cleo Taylor.
This beloved saint of God closed her eyes on this side of Jordon's River and returned back to God's garden of peace. For we don't weep as those who do not have hope,
but rejoice that she has now received her reward with her loving family at her side. We, the Bynes-Royall Funeral Home Family and Staff along with the Taylor Family request your prayers at this time.
Her beloved family would like to thank everyone for the various acts of kindness extended to them.
Public viewing 3-6:00pm Friday January 9th, 2026, at the Chapel of Bynes-Royall.
Celebration of Life services will be held 11:00am Saturday January 10, 2026,

Condolences to The Taylor family. Ms. Cleo sang at my mother's Funeral at St. Peter's Church in 1973 and as a child then I remember thinking that was how angels sounded. The song was "How Great Thou Art" and although I was a small child it was so beautiful. I grew up in Tatumville and she would visit my grandma, Mrs Sally, often. Praying for you all and May God's Comfort rest upon each of you.1 Thess. 4:13-18.
