HILLENAAR – Tayla Anne (née Leek)

Born on May 26, 1991. Passed away January 11, 2022.

Tayla Anne

26/5/1991 – 11/1/2022

Passed away at home surrounded by her loving family, aged 30

Much loved wife of Rob.  Adored daughter of Kathy and Paul, and idolised sister to Marnie and sister-in-law to Mitch.  Our hearts are broken beyond repair, the most beautiful, brave, dignified, kind person.

Your pain is gone our beautiful girl and your fight is over.

Rest in Peace darling girl.

 

To my darling wife Tayla

Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard but always near, still loved, still missed and very dear
Love always and forever Rob xoxo

 

Our beautiful, amazing brave girl, you battled for so long, in so much pain and never once complained.  You fought so hard to stay with us but could no longer carry on.  You will never be forgotten and with you went our hearts, we are absolutely shattered and if love could have saved you, you would still be here.

Love you darling girl Mum and Dad

 

Tayla, you were the most beautiful soul, who I was so lucky to call my sister. You were kind, funny, smart, brave and nothing but amazing. Nothing will ever replace the bond we shared and the world seems a little dimmer without you in it. I miss you and I love you to the moon and back. Until we meet again sis.

Marnie xox

 

Tayla, thankyou for letting me into your family and becoming my sister. Selfless, strong and brave till the end, I will never forget you.

Love Yogi (Mitch)
