Uronda Denise Woolfok was born to the late Posey Lee and Lillie Mae Taylor on May 25, 1965, in Louisville, Kentucky.  She was the youngest of their five children and held a special place in the hearts of her family from the very beginning.

At an early age Uronda accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior and was a member of Eastern Star Baptist Church. She grew up as a fun-loving energetic child who truly enjoyed being surrounded by family.  Known for her adventurous spirit, Uronda had a love for travel that began at an early age.

As a young girl, she was actively involved in the 4-H Club often attending summer camps throughout Kentucky.  She also treasured her travel experiences and the memories she made along the way from visiting cousins in Dayton, OH, to trips to Disney World in Orlando, Florida and attending the World’s Fair in Knoxville, TN.  Later in life, she spent time working and living in Atlanta, GA with her children.

Uronda was educated in the Jefferson County Public School System and attended Ballard High School, where she participated in the Junior ROTC.  She later continued her education through the U.S. Jobs Corps program, where she received training in business and hospitality. She was previously united in holy matrimony to Jeffrey Woolfolk.

Uronda transitioned from this life on March 8, 2026, at Rolling Hills Health Center in New Albany, Indiana, following a brief illness.  She was preceded in death by her parents and beloved siblings, Eula Jane Fox, David Lee, James and Dwayne Taylor.

She leaves to cherish her memory her two children, Timothy Taylor, and Whitney Taylor, her four grandchildren, Shawn, Shumari, Ragen, and DeAndre; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family and dear friends who will continue to carry her love in their hearts.

While we deeply mourn her passing, we find comfort in knowing she is at peace, reunited with her parents, siblings, and loved ones in the presence of our Heavenly Father.
