Katherine Marie Taylor

Our beloved Katherine Marie Taylor, born December 8, 1943 in Bristol, Virginia, has gone to Heaven to be with the love of her life, JESUS!!  Although, Katherine was her given name, she was also known as Kathy, Katheleen, Titee (Tie-Tee), Nana and of course Mom.  A devoted wife, sister, mother, grandmother, great grandmother and friend she leaves a legacy immersed in wisdom, discernment, intercession and spiritual leadership.  Katheleen was a spiritual mentor to so many people, as evidenced by the story of her life.  She always gave God the GLORY and said; “He is GOOD”, no matter what the circumstances.  Often, she would stand in the gap for family members praying in the Spirit and confessing good things into existence.  She understood the power of intersession, fasting and prayer.  Praying diligently over family; calling out blessings for a thousand generations to come.  

Kathy owned and operated a salon in Atlanta called, “The Cuttery” for many years.  She was a strong and hardworking woman.  She had such a keen eye for beautiful things.  She was accomplished, licensed and registered as an Interior Designer, Realtor, Broker and master’s in cosmetology winning awards in Europe, France and the USA.  OH, how she loved the USA!  A patriot to the bone, she loved America and would break out in loud prayer over this nation daily.  Travel was a big part of her life, she frequently loaded up her car and traveled state to state to do her work and visit family in Oklahoma, Virginia, Florida and Texas.  Every visit from Titee, Nana, or sister was a reminder of her deep love for you and she never left until she had prayed down Heaven over your life and family.  Many times, she would say, “…when the Lord calls me home, I will lay down and go to sleep and wake up in Heaven….like Brother Bell did…”.   September 14th, 2021 mom laid down, closed her eyes and passed peacefully in her sleep.

Upon her arrival to Heaven she was met by so many who have gone before her, grand-daughter Rachael Fryrear, her mother Luvenia, her father Gene and many more.

She is survived by her sister, Sue Carter.  Her children, Donna and Craig Hurst, Susan and John Fryrear, Vance and Beth Hardin, Mimi and Elizabeth Rowlette.
