Terrell Nathaniel Taylor was born on October 15, 2004, in Dillon, SC to Joyce Ann McMillan and Phillip Taylor, Sr. Throughout his early childhood, Terrell was fearless, full of joy, and the life of the party. His happiness was contagious and deeply felt by all who had the privilege of being around him.
Terrell enjoyed making people laugh, playing video games, watching horror movies with his siblings, spending time with cousins, nephews and nieces, and his favorite hobby of all was eating. Terrell had a passion for landscaping and whenever given the opportunity, he loved to make the lawns of those in the community, beautiful. Additionally, some of his best traits were being innately kind and compassionate. He routinely called his family to let them know how much he loved and cared for them.
Terrell is predeceased by his grandparents, Callie Jane McMillan of Dillon, SC, Sampson (Shooter) McCleod of Dillon, SC, Shirley and Joe Taylor of Raleigh, NC; aunts Francine McMillan of Dillon, SC and Rose Taylor of Raleigh, NC; Uncles Jerry McMillan of Dillon, SC, June Taylor and Alan Taylor of Raleigh, NC.
Terrell is survived by his parents, Joyce McMillan of Dillon, SC, Phillip Taylor, Sr of Dillon, SC; brothers-Brandon McMillan, Phillip Taylor II, Zachary Taylor, Denzel Taylor, James Taylor; sisters-Fontella McMillan, Philana McMillan, Franchesca McMillan, Faith Bethea (Zammar Bethea), Faneshia (Rose)Taylor; nieces-Harmony Gebreyes, Delilah Taylor, Alonnie Denkins, Ava Taylor, and Haisley Gebreyes; nephews-Damaris McMillan, Eugene McMillan, Phillip Taylor III (PJ), David Taylor, Theodore (Theo) Taylor; aunts and uncles-Gloria Dawkins (Clarence Dawkins), Curtis McMillan (Betty McMillan), Alexandar McMillan, of Dillon, SC Robert Taylor, Greg Taylor, and JoAnn Taylor of Raleigh, NC and a host of cousins and friends.
