With heavy hearts, we announce that our beloved Taylor Kristyn Minks, 24, of Hannibal, Missouri, passed away on August 7, 2025, after a brave battle with cervical cancer.
Born on September 1, 2000, Taylor grew into a beautiful, compassionate, and spirited young woman who touched countless lives with her humor and love. She was a mother to her three children—Kyro, Kylan, and Olive’—who were the light of her life and the reason she fought so fiercely through her illness.
She is survived by her children, Kyro, Kylan, and Olive’; her father, Robert Minks Jr. ; her mom, Tracy Rosser; her siblings, Santia, Christopher, Alexis, and Leon; her niece, Aubrey; and her nephews, Kaidyn, Braxton, and Christopher Jr., as well as many extended family members and friends who will forever cherish her memory.
She is preceded in death by her grandparents Beth, Robert, and Teresa, and her Uncle Ross who now welcome her with open arms in Heaven.
Taylor’s strength, love, and courage will live on in the hearts of those who knew her, and her legacy will forever shine through her children. Though we will miss her deeply, we take comfort in knowing she is now at peace, free from pain, and surrounded by everlasting light and love.
In accordance with her wishes there will be no service at this time.
