Mrs. Clark was a very special friend to me that I will always cherish in my heart. Her feisty, strong willed self would make me smile and at the same time be in awe of how great of a woman she was! She loved her son, Ted, and grandson, Logan, with all of her heart! I know she's up in heaven dancing away with her dear friend, Mrs Camacho!
