As most of you already know, my little angel, Taylor Brown is now one of God's little angels. She passed on Friday, May 29th at 1:25pm. It was very sad, yet very peaceful as well. The staff at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital did such an excellent job, first at caring for Taylor, and then also at helping our family through the process of letting her go on to Heaven. They definetely showed us that this is not just a JOB for them...they care deeply about their patients and mourned our loss with us.

I got a very special "gift" from Taylor before all this happened. One day in the car, she started talking about what she wanted her funeral (or PARTY, as she put it) to be like. She specified that she did not want to be cremated or buried in the ground...she wanted to be in one of those "drawers in the wall thingys"! She also said no one was allowed to wear black or cry....I know we are going to shed some sad tears but we also would like to shed some happy ones remembering the good times and how much joy she brought into our lives!

Arrangements are as follows:

"Celebration of the Life of Taylor Brown"
When: Monday, June 1st @ 6pm
Where: LifePoint Church (formerly FBC of Smyrna) on Legacy drive in Smyrna, TN

"Memorial Service and Final Placement"
When: Tuesday, June 2nd (Visitation begins at noon and will continue until the service begins at 3pm)
Where: Mount Olivet Funeral Home on Lebanon Pike in Nashville, TN

REMEMBER...NO BLACK! Wear bright colored, celebratory clothing to BOTH services!

EVERYONE is welcome to come to both. Even if you never actually met Taylor or our family, we would certainly love to meet you and thank you in person for your prayers, donations, love, and support!

Sincerly,
Jennifer Brown-Seal
