Lori Whitt Taylor

She was an amazing woman of uncompromising faith, who lived with joy and was passionate about serving others. This was evident in her professional life as a nurse and church secretary, as well as her personal life as a loving wife and mother. She focused her service on children’s ministries and had significant influence on countless children over the years. Lori had a unique ability to make the people around her feel welcomed and loved. Anyone who knew her, knew she was a hugger and made people feel as if they were family.

Lori was 51 years old. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. She and her husband, Jim, were married for 29 wonderful years. In addition to her husband, she is survived by three children: her son, Stephen, and his wife, Sarah, and her daughter Kristen. Her mother, Shirley, and two brothers Kip and Stacey live in the central Virginia area.

The family is holding a celebration of life service at 2 p.m. on January 15, 2022, at Corinth Baptist Church in New Kent, Va, with a visitation starting at 11:30 a.m. In honor of Lori’s dedication to service, the family encourages people to take a moment, over the next few months, to serve someone in their community in some way. The family requests people to share those examples by sending details of that service to memorial@loriwtaylor.com in lieu of flowers.

In addition, the family requests that people attending the celebration of life service wear masks for the safety of the family and others and bring a memory of Lori as well as their favorite bible verse.
