Barrie Elizabeth Taylor left this world to be with Jesus on October 19, 2022. Born on February 2, 1969, to Dr. Bobby Joe and Ann Martin of Kansas City, Missouri, Barrie is remembered as a beautiful soul with a big smile and a kind heart.
Her first home was Olathe, Kansas, where her father served at the Olathe Naval Air Station. Barrie earned a BSBA from the University of Arkansas and later became a Realtor, although the fashion lover admitted her favorite job was in a Fayetteville fashion boutique. She was confirmed at First United Methodist Church of Eureka Springs. Barrie enjoyed her many friends and family members, including her little dog friends. She is missed very much.
Barrie leaves behind three children; Charles Tillman Taylor of Springdale, Arkansas; Lauren Elizabeth Taylor of Eureka Springs, Arkansas, and Madeline Morgan Fedosa of Des Moines, Iowa; and darling grandson, Kota Von Davis of Des Moines, Iowa. She is survived by her mother, Ann Elizabeth Martin of Eureka Springs, Arkansas; sister, Ashley Ann Royal and niece, Macy Morgan Patterson of Munford, Tennessee; step-mother, Lind Butler Martin and sister, Sabra Martin of Houston, Texas and brother, Dr. Shannon Martin of Haifa, Israel.
Barrie is preceded in death by her grandparents, Tillman and Jo Morgan of Eureka Springs, Arkansas; Cleo and Delsie Martin of Yellville, Arkansas and father, Dr. Bobby Joe Martin of Yellville, Arkansas.
A graveside service will be held at the Eureka Springs Cemetery at 2 p.m. on November 11, 2023. Pastor Blake Lassiter will preside. Family and friends are invited to join us afterward at Travelers Inn of Eureka Springs to share memories. Light refreshment provided.
