I have many fond memories of Mary Clark as we continued our friendship after my husband and I moved to Florida. Mary was a kind, generous woman and truly a child of God. She had a wonderful sense of humor and was kind and compassionate to everyone she knew. She was full of love and a faithful, faith-filled royal lady. I will dearly miss her. Maria Flake
