Frances spent much of her life caring for others, working as a caregiver and living out a life of compassion, patience, and service. Her greatest accomplishments were being a devoted wife, a loving mother, and a proud grandmother.

Frances enjoyed arts and crafts, gardening, cooking, and spending time with family and friends. She had a warm and welcoming spirit and found great joy in gathering loved ones together, sharing meals, laughter, and making lasting memories.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Robert Bruce Taylor, and her parents, Willie Moore Jr. and Janice Wells.

She is survived by her two daughters, Laura Brooke Taylor of Russellville and Kayla Taylor of Russellville; special friends, Donna Frix of Russellville and Stephanie Berryhill; a brother, Bubba Moore; a sister, Laura Wilder; a grandson, John Cooper Denzinger; a granddaughter, Jaylen Ford; and numerous nieces and nephews who will cherish her memory.

The family wishes to express a heartfelt thanks to the employees of St. Mary's Regional Medical Center and Hospice for their exceptional care.
