Sartell formerly of Little Falls
Taeler Payne Ross, 33, of Sartell and formerly of Little Falls, passed away on Thursday, September 24, at St. Cloud Hospital. A Celebration of Life Service will be held on Saturday, October 10th, from 12:00 P.M. to 3:00 P.M., with a time of sharing at 1:00 P.M., at Emblom Brenny Funeral Service in Little Falls.
Taeler was born on December 25, 1992, in Little Falls, MN, to Stefanie Ross and Troy Oberton. She attended Little Falls Community Schools, graduating with the Class of 2011. Over the years, Taeler worked with Dungarvin, Northern Light Display, and most recently at Magnum LTL—a position she truly loved. Blessed with three children—Teagan, Tyce, and Tesslyn—Taeler devoted her life to her family. She was an avid crafter, loved cooking for her family, and enjoyed jamming to her music. Her home was always filled with plants on the patio and window sills, alongside her cherished collections of rocks, raccoon and bee memorabilia-especially the roosters gifted to her by her brother. Known for her generous spirit, she loved donating to local Christmas gift programs and served as a caring foster parent to two young children.
Taeler is survived by her children, Teagan, Tyce, and Tesslyn Hart of Sartell; her mother, Stefanie Ross of Sartell; her father, Troy Oberton of Colorado; brothers, Trysten (Stephenie and Bowdy) Ross of St. Joseph, MN; Gregory (Hannah, Gabriel, Azariah, Finnian and Kateri) Ross of Foley, MN; sister, Destiny (Rob) Harp of Bluefield, VA; grandmother, Loretta Ross of Sartell; step father, Paul Sills of Waite Park, MN and many loving extended family members and friends.
She was preceded in death by her grandfather, Henry Ross, her uncle, Jason Ross and grandmother, Mary Oberton.
Emblom Brenny Funeral Service is Cherishing the Memory and Celebrating the Life of Taeler.
Our dear friend Taeler, a devoted single mother of three young children ages 10, 9 & 7 is facing a severe health crisis involving critical liver and kidney complications. She is currently hospitalized near her family and is facing a long uphill battle. While she focuses on fighting these life-threatening health challenges, her three children are being cared for by a loving family member who is generously stepping up despite battling their own serious health issues. The financial burden of ongoing critical care, and everyday living expenses for the kids is overwhelming.
We are raising funds to cover:
- Ongoing Medical Relief: Assistance with rising out-of-pocket medical bills so she can focus entirely on healing..
- Childcare & Essential Supplies: Direct support for groceries, utilities, and daily necessities for the three kids while their caregiver manages their own health.
Every donation, no matter the size, eases the heavy strain on her family during this devastating time. If you are unable to donate, sharing this campaign with your network means the world to us. Thank you for your kindness, prayers, and generosity.
