Mollandro (Mo) Antoine Taylor, Sr.
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Mollandro (Mo) Antoine Taylor, Sr. on November 11, 2024. Mollandro (Mo) was born November 15, 1962, to Ann Taylor McKinney. He was married to Tanya Naomi Taylor for 26 years. Mo worked as the Branch Manager for HPC Industrial for 23 years and worked 30+ years in the Petrochemical Industry where he was greatly loved and respected. Mollandro, a family-oriented guy, loved spending time cruising with his wife, Tanya, working on the old truck with “his boy”, Lil Mo, spoiling Aria Jane, “Pa Pa’s Baby”, and enjoying other family members at family get-togethers in his hometown of Nacogdoches, Texas. He had strong Christian roots, so, he loved listening to and singing gospel songs, but his greatest love of all was for Jesus Christ, his Lord and Savior.
Mollandro is survived by his loving wife, Tanya Taylor; children, Mollandro Taylor Jr. “Lil Mo” (Asia), Lee Taylor, Mollinda Edwards (Brent), grandchildren; Aria Jane “Pa Pa’s Baby”, Kamryn, Jay’Da, Janae, Brea, Leah and Brent Edwards III.

We first met in 2016 as I started as the Branch Manager for HDX. Each day from that time on we would sit in my office and talk about work, families, and sports. Not necessarily in that order…Our friendship grew more and more always giving each other a hard time. You were always BLUNT in our conversations, and I was as you would say more “finesse”. You would always try your hardest to push my buttons, and at first you would succeed until I learned that’s what you were trying to do. I soon learned that your heart was always for the betterment of those around you. We disagreed on things; namely politics, but we never let it disrupt our friendship or respect for one another. You will always be my friend, confidant, but more so than anything…my BROTHER.
I was deeply saddened to hear about your husband’s passing. My heartfelt condolences during this incredibly difficult time. Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayer.
Rest In the arms of Jesus cousin I love you I won’t be able to make the service but I am lifting my family in prayer I love you all Get your rest Snoopy!!
I would like to thank the Taylor family for sharing Mr Mo. with us. Often times in this industry you would feel like management was unapproachable but that was never the case with Mr.Mo. He was like that Uncle you loved to be around. He believed in you even through your flaws. His support he showed was unmatched. No problem was to big for him to take the time and help get it solved. You’ll never replace a Mr. Mo never he simply was one of us that just so happen to be in management…. Thank you for everything Love ya Uncle Mr.Mo rest up until next time job will done here on earth.
You know you are truly blessed when you have a person in your life that has a made a positive impact. Growing up, people move forward with their lives, families, and go in different directions. You may not talk as regularly as you once did. You may go days, weeks, or months not talking. It’s not because you’re at odds. But when you do make contact, it’s like you don’t miss a beat in the conversation. I was so sadden when I got word of Mollandros’ passing. Many of you refer to him as Mr. Mo. With respect and not to tarnish that, he will always be our “Snoopy”. Many of us, who grew up together on Powers Street back home in Nacogdoches, will miss our Snoopy. “”Float on, Float On”. Prayers and condolences to the Taylor family. Class of ’81. Reggie Williams

I have much respect towards you Mo, the favors you have done for me will not go unappreciated. 30+ years in this industry is a deep footprint you’re leaving.

The Taylor family has had such an amazing impact on my life starting with my best friend lil mo. Mr mo you were always so nice to me and my family thank u for all the encouraging words of wisdom u have given me and all the laughs we have shared they will never be forgotten. U truly were an amazing man, father, husband, and role model. Lord please rest your hand on the Taylor’s and continue to give them your strength.
It’s really sad how all this happened out of no where we were just helping you a d lil .o with the ol Chevy 2 weeks ago I brought my buddy Johnny over to see if we could get that bad boy right. I just got to know you and I knew right of way you were a real one .A man with a good heart. You were old enough to be my father yet we shared the same grand baby. When we talked i enjoyed conversating with you because you had wisdom and i needed that . Im someone who grew up without a father so it was nice .I know you loved our grnd baby so much and I will do my best to give her the love of two Pa Pas . I’m deeply saddened for the loss for lil MO especially I know he still needed his dad . Sorry for Tanya as well I couldn’t do it be without my other half. But I know Big Mo is home now home home. With the lord Jesus Christ.
I’m deeply sorry for your loss. My deepest sympathies go out to you,Tanya, and your family. I’m thinking of you and praying for you. Wishing you and yours strength during this sad time.
It’s still hard to believe that your gone. But you will never be forgotten and the memories and lessons that you taught me. Rest Well Big Mo…
“For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.”
Philippians 1:21 KJV
I know we lost you here in this physical world…but you have gained a heavenly Kingdom. I will forever remember the talks we would have about family, and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I will remember how you would encourage me to take more time off to spend it with family and how it mattered. I will remember those phone calls I would get every morning checking up on me…and at times I would vent my frustrations…but you always kept calm and helped me out. We will miss you Big Mo…but we will see you again one day in JESUS name!
The Nacogdoches High School class of 1981 find it befitting to express our love, respect and our deepest sympathy to the Taylor family during this hour of bereavement. We all knew Mollandro as “Snoopy” who made an everlasting impression on everyone who knew him. Although we may find it hard to understand Gods purpose and his plan during this hour, we will forever give him thanks for the life of such a wonderful man. His memory will be forever engraved in our hearts.
