Valentine’s Day isn’t only about romantic love — it’s also a beautiful time to remember those who hold a special place in our hearts. ❤️

Here are 3 meaningful ways to honor a loved one this Valentine’s Day:

Light a candle in their memory and take a quiet moment to reflect.

Do something they loved — a favorite meal, song, or tradition that brings you closer to them.

Share a story with someone who knew them. Keeping their memory alive is a gift in itself.

Love lives on in the ways we remember. How will you honor someone special this year?

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Brent Taylor Funeral Directors Announces New Ownership and Upcoming Rebrand

Collierville, TN — Brent Taylor Funeral Directors announces an important update regarding the ownership and direction of the funeral home. The business is no longer owned, operated, or affiliated in any way with Brent Taylor. While the name has remained during the transitional phase, leadership has fully changed hands, and all decisions, services, and community initiatives are now guided by a new management team.

As part of our commitment to serving Collierville with compassion, professionalism, and neutrality, we recognize the importance of clarity for the families who rely on us. We understand that recent public statements and political commentary made by the former owner do not reflect the values, mission, or beliefs of our current leadership. To ensure that our identity aligns with the inclusive, community-focused service we provide, we are actively undertaking a full rebrand of the funeral home.

This rebrand—including a new name, signage, and visual identity—will represent a fresh chapter for our organization and a renewed promise to the families of Collierville and the surrounding areas. Our goal is to create a space that is welcoming to all, free from association with any individual’s political views, and singularly dedicated to offering compassionate care during life’s most difficult moments.

Operations, staff, and quality of service will remain uninterrupted throughout this process. Families who have entrusted us with pre-arranged plans can expect the same reliability and stewardship they have always received.

We look forward to sharing more details about the new brand in the coming weeks and appreciate the community’s understanding and support during this exciting transition.
