Tom Wallace, beloved friend and colleague at Cotton, is the heart and inspiration behind Taylor’s Place — a private sanctuary nestled on thirty acres west of Katy, where families navigating terminal illnesses can create lasting memories. During his four-year battle with cancer, Tom devoted time to his loved ones, determined to make memories with his wife and four-year old daughter, Taylor. In his memory, Cotton Foundation has created Taylor’s Place. From fishing and basketball to playing music or simply enjoying the serenity of the outdoors, Taylor’s Place provides a peaceful retreat where families can connect, heal and build lasting bonds.

We officially broke ground in 2025 and we’re thrilled to share our latest progress with you at CrawFest!
