She was an amazing big sister, daughter, granddaughter, friend, student, teammate, and so much more. Taylor had the biggest heart, loved children, and was fiercely loyal. She enjoyed spending time with family and friends and being at the lake doing any and every outdoor activity. Taylor had an infectious laugh which came with the best sense of humor. She was fluent in English and sarcasm. She is survived by her mother and father, Janet and Shane; her sister, Brooklyn; her beloved dog, Sonny; grandmother Joyce Jarding of Farley, Iowa; grandparents Dana (Lech) and Mike Shaw of Omaha, Nebraska; great-grandmother Ginny Brimeyer of Omaha, Nebraska; several aunts, uncles, cousins, and many friends.
