Sarah Bex was born on March 14th, 1979 in Indianapolis, Indiana. She was a graduate of Centennial Memorial High School.
She was preceded in death by her Grandfather Roy Dodson, her Grandfather Taulbee Devon Gayheart and Grandmother Barbara Mcneely.
Survivors include Bradley Bex Jr (son), Anna Ladd (Mother), Donald Gayheart (Father), Ray Ladd (step Father), and Jewel Dodson (Grandmother).
Sarah was a ray of sunshine that never met a stranger. She was beautiful, intelligent and had a heart of gold. She loved the simple things in life: a good book, a good movie, and all of outdoors, especially the ocean. She loved sitting around the campfire with family and friends. She really loved listening to music and singing to her Dad, her step brother Philip Ladd, or anyone else that was gifted enough to play guitar. Her greatest joy in life was her son Bradley and every moment she got to spend with him.
Even when life was complicated Sarah always had time to make someone else that was troubled feel better. She was absolutely gifted that way. She was also blessed with the gift of gab. There wasn’t anyone on any level that she couldn’t relate to. Sarah had a sense of humor like no other. She could make you laugh even during the worst of times. Often you wanted her to stop because your stomach would hurt from laughing so much. She was loved by so many I don’t even think she really realized her impact on this world. Everyone that had the pleasure to love her, know her, or even cross paths with her was blessed for it. As a child she was out-going, funny, and sweet. As she grew older she earned the nickname Moody from her Grandpa Dodson and Punk from her Father. For me, her mother, she was and always will be just Baby Girl. Sarah left this earth way sooner than she should have. I know she had much left to do and many more lives to make richer. She shines on everyday in her son Bradley and each and everyone’s heart who had the privilege to love her or know her.
Baby Girl, my life will never be the same but I know you will brighten heaven up even more and you are with those you loved so much that left here before you. I will see you again, just wish heaven had phones or even texting until then.

I have shared so many memories with my cousin, it’s difficult to pick just one to share. Although life took us down different paths, I loved her and wish this wasn’t so. I miss my cuz. This is hitting me harder than I thought it would. I just want to hear her laugh again
Jeff says
Sarah was my best friend and a true friend she was always there when i needed to talk or vent no matter what time of night. It hard to believe that you are not here. I am glad we made that road trip just before God called you home, i still pic kup my phone to call you before i realize heaven doesnt have cell phones… love you Sarah

Lori Soard says
I am so grateful I got to see my little cousin a few months back and spend some time talking to her. As always, she was bubbly, laughing, and talkative and that is how I choose to remember her. Always take that time to spend with family whenever you can. Those memories are so precious.
Anna Ladd says
Sarah was my beautiful daughter. My only child. From the moment she was born she was my soul reason for being on this earth. She made me a better woman. I wanted her to have all the good things life has to offer and all the love in my heart. Now my heart is broken and will never be repaired. I thank God that he blessed her with a wonderful son and Grandson for me. Sarah and I were not just Mother and Daughter but best friends. Even when we had our differences she knew I loved her no matter what. She should still be here and I will never understand why she had to go. She had much good left to do on this earth. She brightened everyone’s path she crossed and even when she was facing her own struggles she always had time to lend a helping hand or comfort a friend or even a stranger. I try to be strong for her son Bradley and I know she is looking down on us and has comfort in knowing I will be there for Bradley in every way and I will always keep her memory alive for him. This should have never happened baby girl! I love you with all my heart and soul and with every choice I make I will consider and put your lil’ man first. Please show us you are still with us by being the beautiful butterfly you always have been. You are in my heart and head everyday until we meet again baby girl. I love you
Heavenly Sister says
Sarah was a very special person. I cannot think of anything that she wouldn’t do for anyone. She loved her son like no other. She loved her family as well. May she rest in peace and sing with the angels. Walk on the streets of gold and prepare a place for your loved ones to join you when God calls them home.
