Read MoreWe will always remember Jessie as a strong woman who used her many gifts so well. During our years in Canberra we were always delighted when she bounded into one of our offices, with the greeting. 'You have to do something about this. Write this down!' She was an inspiration and taught us so much, and was also a good and thoughtful friend.

Dear Extended Clark Family,
With sadness we read of the passing of a woman who was larger than life itself. She filled a room! Who else would have cocktail frankfurts and fairy bread to celebrate her 80th birthday? What would we have offered for the 100th Birthday?
Like Eric Dax she nearly made the tonne!
I send my condolences.
