Mrs. Clark lived most of her life in Pulaski County on the farm and then at the lake. She worked for the county Extension office in the nutrition/commodities programs. She also worked as a substitute teacher and spent many years as a teacher’s assistant at West Central High School retiring in 1994. She volunteered as a 4-H leader, adult sponsor for SAAD, served on the Governor Council for Drug Prevention and was an active member of Pulaski Memorial Hospital Auxiliary. She loved her work with the auxiliary and served her last day at the hospital on April 1. She was so blessed to live in her home at Lake Bruce and go to her job at the hospital right up to her admittance into the hospital on April 6. Her service to the community was driven by her love for the Lord. She attended Medaryville Christian Church for many years and served as high school Sunday School teacher, VBS director and was involved in many youth activities and women’s ministry. After they moved to the lake, she attended Kewanna Church of Christ where she was active in women’s Bible study and women’s ministry and loved her church families very much. She had three great loves, the Lord, Omer Ray and her family. She is now home with two of them.

A celebration of life service will be at 3 p.m., Sunday, May 5, at the Kewanna Church of Christ. Visitation will be from 1 p.m. until the time of the service.
