Sabrina Taylor

Mrs. Scarlet Sabrina Taylor (nee Brooks), aged 69, of Conyers, died peacefully surrounded by her family and friends on Thursday, May 8, 2025. She was preceded in death by her parents, James and Martha Brooks. She is survived by her husband of 32 years, Michael Richard Taylor; two daughters, Abigail Michele Taylor and Jenny Lynn Taylor; brother, Jimmy Brooks; niece Rebecca Brooks; nephew, James Brooks III (McDonough); great nieces and nephews, Bonnie Huffaker, Sawyer Hughes and Atticus Hughes: aunt, Dotti Covington (Cumming); uncles, Derrial Green (Thomaston) and Gerrial and Carolyn Green (Thomaston); cousins, Tom Covington (Athens), Andrew Covington (Cumming), Tim Covington (Avondale Estates), Kimberly Larson (Thomaston), Amy Covington (Cumming), Derek Green (Thomaston), Brian Wilson (Thomaston), and Dusty Wilson (St Simons). Sabrina dedicated her life to the care, education and enrichment of children. She spent 44 years as an elementary school teacher, more than 25 of those at Barksdale Elementary in Rockdale County. She was always there to support her own (and other people's children) at school plays, musical performances, sporting events, and awards ceremonies. Sabrina delighted in celebrating and nurturing talent and passion in young people and she was never happier than when surrounded by children. She was a wonderful wife, supportive and loving mother and caring, dear friend to many people. When she wasn't teaching or cheering people on from the sidelines, Sabrina loved to travel, go to plays and musicals, explore new restaurants, and shopping (particularly at TJ Maxx). Many people would say Sabrina was the sweetest person they'd ever met and her kind, generous spirit will be deeply missed. A celebration of Sabrina's life will be held on May 27 at 6pm at The Black Box Theatre, 910 Center Street, Conyers, GA, 30012. If you'd like to attend, please arrive at 5:30pm and let the family know so they can plan numbers for refreshments following the service. The family requests that you wear something that reminds you of Sabrina - whether that’s something blue (her favorite color) or even a T-shirt with a character from your favorite children’s book, they’d love to see the theatre filled with color to honor her. In lieu of flowers, please can those wishing to give in honor of Sabrina, make a donation to Kiwanis Club of Conyers , using one of the following methods: -Mail a check made out TO: Kiwanis Club of Conyers and marked FOR: Sabrina Taylor to P.O. Box 1754, Conyers, GA, 30012 -Zell your donation to: 770-377-3605 and add a Memo to say FOR: Sabrina Taylor (after you select "Review") The literacy project, run by Kiwanis Club of Conyers, gifts a book to every student (Kindergarten - 3rd Grade) in an effort to improve the reading skills and literacy levels of elementary school students in the local community. Their hope is that this will foster a love of reading and improve self-confidence, ultimately leading to more well-rounded students, more articulate adults, and better community leaders. In the two weeks leading up to the Christmas break, Kiwanis volunteers distribute the books to each child in classrooms in Conyers and read a section of the book aloud to the class. The project gives young children, many of whom cannot afford to purchase books of their own, the opportunity to share the joy of reading at home.
