Jennifer (Jenn) Taylor did not need to follow a recipe to make the most amazing cakes. She would put random things together and voila — out came magic. It didn’t stop there; she also loved to put on the finishing touches by decorating the cake. She was so creative. And if you were the lucky recipient of one of her cakes, you knew she really loved you because she put a lot a time, thought and love into everything she did. Jenn was incredibly beautiful not just on the outside, but very deeply inside especially if she let you past her thick layer of skin. Her piercing eyes were mesmerizing to look at and were the windows into her soul. Jenn had a wicked smile that you couldn’t get enough of. She was very funny and her laugh was infectious. Jenn was a ray of sunshine and it was always exciting to see her and be with her. She was fearless and tough, but girly and feminine in so many ways. She was amazingly smart, book-read, and wise. She was an amazingly hard worker with an outstanding work ethic. She loved owls, butterflies, skulls, tattoos, candles, and high heels — she had quite a collection. It was never a good idea to get on her bad side. And if you were you could almost feel it. The glare gave it away. Jenn loved and protected her children. She was so very proud of them in so many ways. They are, and will forever be, her everything. She was truly an amazing mother. She brought them from Michigan to Utah in December 2013 to make a new life for them and to be closer to her father. Not having been out of Michigan or flown on a plane, they made the journey and in a short time, Jenn made their home in Stansbury Park, secured a job, and established a new normal for her family. It wasn’t always easy, but she was persistent, determined, and had hope. We loved her, supported her, and cheered her on and she was triumphant. Jenn understood the importance of family. She was loving, empathic, and sympathetic. She gave amazing hugs. “Love ya” and “Make good choices” were her parting words to family and friends. She is survived by her daughter Kayla, son Gavyn, mother Marcy (Bill) Dunkel, sister Jessica Little, brother Ian (Krysten) Little, nephew Bradley (the shark), and niece Madylin, father Stephen (Lori) Little, stepbrother Neil Little, stepsister Jamie Little, and several grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and all of her loving friends. Jenn’s children and family would be honored if you’d join them for an open house celebrating her life on Thursday, April 16 at the Stansbury Park Club House from 4-8 p.m. There will be photos, memories, laughter, food, and beverages. Jenn loved baking cakes for those she loved and if you’d like to bring a cake to share we would be grateful and would warm our hearts. The Jennifer Taylor Memorial Fund has been set up at Wells Fargo for her children in lieu of flowers.
