On July 15, 2022 the world became dimmer with the passing of Hope Taylor (nee Calabrese), a light that left its mark on any soul touched by her warmth. While Hope only had 48 short years on this earth, the number of lives that she touched is immeasurable. She will be remembered as a kind, quirky, soft spoken, compassionate, loving, beautiful soul who accepted everyone just as they were with no judgement. To be around her, was to be enveloped with magic and all the best things this world can offer. She loved spending time with her family, animals (especially wolves), anything mystical/fantasy, and collecting knives.

Hope has reunited with her loving father, Alan Calabrese, and will surely be watching over all of her treasured surviving family and friends, especially her devoted husband, George Taylor Jr, beautiful daughter, Allison Calabrese, loving mother, Diane Calabrese (nee Turner), and younger sister, April Cappilla (nee Calabrese).

Arrangements are pending at this time with Parsels Funeral Home, 324 New Jersey Avenue, Absecon, NJ 08201. The service will be broadcast via Facebook Live for those who cannot attend in person, once service times are announced. Interment will be private. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the ASPCA. For online condolences, please visit www.parselsfh.com.
