In Memory of Taylor Brett Burton 03/01/2008-07/30/2008

Taylor is a angle that came into our lives and family for a sweet if short time. He came to this earth with at loving, strong spirit and he left a deep lasting impression on all those he met. His was a mission of love and endurance.

He was surrounded by family and left this life peacefully knowing he was deeply loved. We will see you again Taylor, but we will love and miss you until then.

This is my beautiful nephew Taylor born just 6 days before my little Lexi. I know that they were best friends in Heaven and will always be best friends forever. Even though Taylor was so young he was such a great example to me. Taylor we love you and miss you so much, but we know that you are in a better place and that you completed your mission here on earth and have gone back home to our Father in Heaven.

Taylor looked so peaceful.
Taylor's coffin was made with love by his Father Brett, Grandfather Scott, and Uncles Ryan, Kent, and Tyler.
All of the lining was made by Taylor's Aunt Polly.

Darling

Darling, how we've loved you

How precious you have been

since first we knew you were coming

our joy could not be stemmed.

Oh Darling how we adore you,

your precious, pudgy hands,

your sweet, angelic face

your Strong and perfect spirit.

Darling we will miss you

but we had you for a while,

always loving, always happy

giving us your special smile.

Darling you bore so well

the things you were to bear

we are so thankful you were ours

and with our family, too could share.

Darling, you are safe

and no longer are in pain.

Darling you are not here

where your body has been lain.

Darling stay with god

and listen to His truths.

We'll do our best to fallow

that we may forever be with you.

Lexi and Taylor

Lexi's cousin Taylor was born six days before she was, he had a extended stay in primary children's hospital so on April 25, 2008 Lexi, Gram, and I went up to the hospital to bust Jenny and Taylor out. Really Taylor just got released otherwise we would be behind bars. But it sounds better when you say we busted him out. Lexi just really wanted to play with her cousin. Taylor was born at St. Marks but had to be transported to Primary's to have a G-tube put in so he got to ride in this really cool ambulance.

My computer is up and running again

Hi everyone sorry it has been so long, we have just bought a new home and so our computer and internet has been down. I know that these arent the best pictures but they are all I have right now. These pictures were taken after the big storm on July 22 that came through Taylorsville and Kearns, our house took a good hit and we lost six branches out of our tree.
