CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Funeral arrangements have been announced for the two Kenwood Middle School students killed in last week’s deadly school bus crash in Carroll County.

According to Zoe Davis’ obituary, a Celebration of Life will be held at 1 p.m. Saturday, April 4, at Neal-Tarpley-Parchman Funeral Home. Visitation will be held from 10 a.m. until the service hour.
Zoe, 13, was an eighth grader at Kenwood Middle School who was involved in STEM Club, theater and art, and was an aspiring engineer.
According to her obituary, “Zoe loved to make people smile and laugh and was always her authentic self.”
Service information also has been shared for Arianna Pearson.

In a tribute post, the Montgomery County Soccer Association remembered Arianna as a member of its soccer community. “She was not only an incredible soccer player, but also an amazing person who brought kindness, dedication, and heart to everything she did.” The organization said her impact “on and off the field will never be forgotten.”

Here’s a story offering a great example of how a common cause, and a little creativity, can “intersect” to improve quality of life. Our South Nashville reporter Patsy Montesinos shares how some neighbors decided to take action, following the tragic death of a 77-year-old in a hit-and-run along Antioch Pike earlier this year. See how they used “tactical urbanism” to make the area a little safer for all.
