Sarah Elizabeth Taylor

Sarah was born January 28,1980 in Kansas City, MO. A 1998 Grandview High School graduate, she had an excitement for life and experienced life with wide-eyed wonder. Everything would take her breath away, from the butterflies at Powell Gardens, to the wild cats at Cedar Cove and the hummingbirds in our backyard.

The first thing you’d notice about Sarah was her huge smile! She’d greet everyone with a smile and tell you what she had just done or what she was about to do…she always had a story to share. No matter who you were, Sarah would immediately treat you like she had known you forever. And oh what an infectious laugh she had! She’d have you laughing right along with her in no time.

Sarah’s love for Jesus was reflected in how she lived her life. She cared about people, no matter who you were. She had a generous spirit and took great joy and delight in creating things so she could give them away.

Sarah’s journey through life left footprints of kindness, love, joy, and faith. Her bright smile and giving heart will be greatly missed. Even though she is gone, her memories and legacy shall continue to inspire us to live the full life Jesus promised to give His followers. Sarah is survived by her parents Sharon and Jamie Arwick of Harrisonville, MO; grandmother Phyllis Alves and Uncle Bill Alves of Peculiar, MO; brothers Christopher Neale & fiance Tanika Davila of Lawson, MO, Ryan Neale of Waldorf, MD, Hans (and Danielle) Arwick of Stacy, MN, Monte (and Lynette) Arwick of Pleasant Hill, MO, and Jeff Arwick; sisters Tracy (and Brandon) Hannon of Belton, MO, Jubilee Arwick of Peculiar, MO, Rosanna (and Aaron) Harbin of Grain Valley, MO, and Callie Arwick of Kansas City, MO; and many much loved nieces and nephews.

All are welcome to attend Sarah’s Celebration of Life memorial on her birthday, Saturday January 28th at 11:00 am at Heart of Life Church, 800 SW State Route 150 Hwy, Lee’s Summit, MO.
