Reva Nancy Taylor February 23, 1953 - Sunday, November 2, 2008




My Grandpas cousin Reva passed away Sunday night after fighting a battle with cancer. We all loved her and she will be missed! We know she is in a better place and she is out of pain. Please keep the Taylor family in your prayers.



Reva Nancy (Platt) Taylor (55) passed away peacefully in her home on Sunday, November 2, 2008 with her family at her side from a courageous battle with cancer. Reva had a way of lighting up a room with her presence and cared so much about others.

Reva was born to Virgil Jerome Platt and Nancy Louise Bradshaw on February 23, 1953 in Taber, AB, Canada. Reva married her sweetheart Michael Shirl Taylor on July 28, 1972 in the Cardston Alberta Temple. They are the parents of 5 children. She is survived by her husband Mike, her children; Tiffany Smith, Payson, Justin (Jordan) Taylor, Coeur d'Alene, ID, Tanya Taylor, Park City, Amber (Jared) Robertson, Lehi and Clint Taylor, Elko, NV; sister Robynne Platt, Lethbridge, AB Canada and mother in law Shirley Taylor, Spanish Fork. She was preceded in death by her parents and brothers, Ray, Reed and Richard Platt.

Reva served as a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. She enjoyed taking long hot baths, reading, licorice ice cream, public speaking and swimming. Her main priority was spending time with her family and friends and serving her Savior and his Church. She will be greatly missed and in our hearts forever.

You will be miss Reva! We love you!

Right now I have a prayer deep within my heart, A prayer for each of you there is a special part. That you remember who you are and him who lives above. Please seek for him and live his way; You'll feel his love.
Long before the time you can remember, Our Father held you in his arms so tender. Those loving arms released you as he sent you down to earth. He said, "My child, I love you. Don't forget your great worth."
This life on earth we knew would not be easy. At times we lose our way his path we may not see. But remember always that you are not alone. He'll take your hand, He loves you! He will guide you home.
Walk tall, you're a daughter, a child of God, Be strong and remember who you are, Try to understand, you're part of his great plan. He's closer than you know, Reach up; he'll take your hand.
