Tamara Taylor Obituary
Tamara Kathleen Taylor, 56, of Streamwood passed away peacefully on February 24, 2020. Tamara was a warm, loving person and extremely generous. She was lovingly referred to as "Princess" by her family. She will be remembered for her love of Elvis, her ability to make people laugh, and always putting others before herself. Above all, Tamara's family was most important to her. She will be dearly missed by all who knew her.
Tamara is survived by her loving mother, Carole Taylor-Solarz (Jerry Solarz) and father, William H. Taylor Jr.; brother, William H. (Mary) Taylor III; nieces and nephews, Nicole Taylor, TJ Karavos, Alexa (Kody) Michaels, William Taylor IV, and Peter Karavos; and dear friend and companion, Ray Gemein. She was preceded in death by her sister, Lisa Jo (Ted) Karavos.
Services will be held privately.
At the time of Tamara's passing, she was on dialysis waiting for a kidney transplant. The family would appreciate donations to be made to the National Kidney Foundation in honor of Tamara.

Tamara Taylor - During her time on the TV series Bones, I was impressed - A good actor, and in my opinion, the most beautiful person on the planet. I am very sorry to see she passed. Sincere condolences.

I am so sincerely sorry for your loss. Although I never met your daughter, she interacted with my father a little over a month ago at JC Pennys at golf Mill. My father described meeting a lovely young lady who purchased his pillow for him. It appears that he talked to Tammy for a while and even got to the point of exchanging numbers and addresses. My Dad was on cloud nine sharing his brief encounter with Tammy. In return for her kindness, my father sent one of his collectible Royal Daulton mugs to her address. He followed up after a while with a phone call and received the terrible news. I simply want to express my gratitude for a person whos left this earth that even in a moment where she was suffering extreme health issues - she took the time to touch somebodys life and it meant so much. She was truly a hero in its purest form. My familys thoughts and prayers are with you.
Thank you,
Scott McWilliams
