Twyla Evette Jefferson Taylor

October 10, 1976 - October 05, 2021

Twyla Evette Jefferson Taylor was born October 10, 1976 to the proud parents of Joseph and Diane Jefferson, Jr. in Bogalusa, Louisiana. She attended Harry’s Chapel United Methodist Church, where she was involved in all church activities. At an early age she was a member of the children’s choir, young adult and the chancellor choir. She also at an early age took piano lessons under the direction of Mr. Willie E. Ginn and Mrs. Juanita Magee.

Twyla was a devoted daughter, mother, and wife. She was the first child in a family of two girls, with her only sister Keely Etton McKelphin, her best friend.

Twyla was a quite humble child who also kept a smile. Everyone who knew her will remember her by her beautiful smile.

One of the things Twyla enjoyed doing the most was reading. Twyla graduated from Bogalusa High School in 1994 with honors. She attended PRC and later went to work with the Washington Parish Sheriff Department.

Twyla’s world revolved around her son Zay’lin Taylor, the joy of her life. She was a dynamic mother. She was married to Robbie Ray Taylor of 24 years.

The Lord called Twyla Evette Jefferson Taylor home on October 5, 2021. She leaves to remember her parents, Joseph and Diane Jefferson; one sister, Keely Jefferson McKelphin and a host of family and friends.
