Tyra Taylor, a cherished member of her community and beloved friend to many, was born on October 6, 1978, in Chicago, Illinois. She entered eternal rest on November 11, 2025, at the Heart to Heart Inpatient Center, leaving behind a legacy of joy, creativity, and passion.

Tyra was an individual who fundamentally understood the beauty in life’s simple pleasures. Her deep love for R & B music was a defining element of her vibrant personality, filling her surroundings with rhythm and soul. An avid arts and crafts enthusiast, she especially delighted in Diamond Art, turning her artistic visions into sparkling pieces that reflected her zest for life. Tyra's affection for Mickey Mouse showcased her playful spirit, reminding all of us to embrace the child within us.

As a dedicated professional driver for a local transportation company, Tyra spent her days behind the wheel of limousines, limo buses, and school buses, bringing smiles and laughter to the passengers she transported. Her love for driving was evident in her approach to her work; she treated each journey as an opportunity to connect with others, always sharing her warmth and kindness.

A steadfast supporter of the Dallas Cowboys, Tyra wore her team colors with pride on game days, fostering camaraderie among fellow fans and friends. Her passion and enthusiasm were infectious, and her ability to bring people together will be sorely missed.

Tyra leaves behind countless memories and stories that will continue to resonate in the hearts of those who knew her. Her legacy of music, creativity, and love will remain a guiding light for family and friends alike. She is remembered not just for the passions she embraced but for the warmth and kindness she freely shared with everyone who crossed her path.
