Columbia, SC – God gave the gift of life to Taylor Ann Benton through her parents Eddie and Sabrina Benton, as they welcomed her into this world on May 7, 1991. Taylor was reunited with her Creator and Savior on Wednesday, December 23, 2015 following a car accident in Columbia, SC.
In 24 short years Taylor lived a full life with lots of laughs, courage and great love.

Taylor adored her brother, Hunter Benton and her sister, Spencer Benton Quinlan. They loved spending time together including their family dinner together just hours before Taylor's death. Taylor graduated from Ben Lippen High School in 2009 and from the University of South Carolina in 2013. She then followed her dream of working in the fashion industry and moved across the country to work at Nordstrom's in Palo Alto, CA. God provided for her every step of the way, including recently in providing a wonderful church and Bible study group. Jesus had become real to Taylor and now she sees Him face to face.

Along with her immediate family, Taylor is also survived by her brother-in-law: Tim Quinlan; her grandmothers: Evon Benton and Mary Catherine Hardee and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins who loved and cared for her.

A celebration of Taylor's life will be held Saturday, December 26, 2015 at 2 PM at First Presbyterian Church, 1324 Marion Street, Columbia, officiated by Dr. Derek W. H. Thomas and Dr. Mark McDowell. Visitation with the family will follow in Jackson Hall. A private committal in Greenlawn Memorial Park will precede the service. Shives Funeral Home, Trenholm Road Chapel, is assisting the family.

Taylor loved children. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Daybreak Crisis Pregnancy Center, 2009 Hampton Street, Columbia, SC 29204.

To all who loved Taylor, thank you for your expressions of care and compassion this week. We will miss Taylor and look forward to being reunited with her in the presence of the Savior who loved her and called her into His arms.
