Laylah Audrie'Elyse Thompson born August 1, 2019 in Lafayette, Louisiana. Southern Cajun born, Soul of an Angel, loved her father Jesus Christ and had the heart of a Lioness. Little big sister to her older brother. Laylah came into this world and knew exactly what she wanted. She conquered and no, she was never defeated. She was chosen for a higher purpose. Laylah lived her life facing fears, being brave, adventurous and loved all things spooky. Beautiful soul inside and out, she had the prettiest smile, the most warming laugh and the best silly faces! She also loved giving side eye. Most of all she was our sunshine! Laylah loved her mom, dad and brother; But she stuck to mom the most. They were inseparable. She loved the colors pink, black and blue. If she was a flower she would be a daisy or a sunflower. Laylah loved butterflies and all animals, but her favorite was a Zebra. What she loved the most was being with her family, going outdoors and grocery shopping. Laylah leaves to cherish her precious memories: her mother Jayd Taylor; father Troy Thompson; brother Adrien Thompson; grandmothers Kimbrae Taylor and Jil Carter; grandfathers Eric I. Wamsley and Troy D Thompson; great grandparents Benjamin Taylor, Jane Dismute, and Ellis and Cordelia Wamsley; great-great grandmother to Betty Taylor and a host of cousins and other relatives. Laylah touched the lives of so many; our beloved, shining, happy girl, the light of our lives and the star of our hearts; she leaves us smiling through our tears. She was joy personified and will be deeply missed by all who loved her.
