Grannie,

You will always be in my heart. I will miss the talks we would have and how you would listen and take it all in. Thank you for given up your time to take care of KT & Chris every summer. Aliyah is still asking to see her Grannie and although she never spent a summer with you she will always remember the time she did spend with you. Thank you for all you have taught us and for all the love you gave us. I know I am truly blessed by the Lord, to have had you for my 41 years.

Love Always, Your 1st Grandchild

To: The Clark Family,



It's very difficult at times, to face grief with a smile. It's hard to make ourselves believe all passes in awhile. God promise to be with us and to forsake us not, he only ask we trust in him, believe he always does what's best and know you do all that you can do and leave to him the rest. If my departing has left avoid then fill it with remebered joys. For I am now at peace forever.



P.S.: We played cards like crazy, you will be missed.



Love, Consuella & Howard Woodland

Dear Barbara, Betty, Pat and Family



Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to you and your family. We can remember the good times we had with Mrs. Clark as we cruised and visited various casinos in the Bahamas. She was always so full of life and fun. Her voice has been quieted for us, but her spirit will live on forever. May you all find peace in knowing that she has gone to a far better place.



Love,

Dear Barbara Jean,



I am truly sorry for the loss of your mom, Miss Mildred. I will not be able to come to the viewing nor the funeral service, but you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.



I am glad that I got reacquainted with Miss Mildred last summer at your home in Tompkinsville. It was great seeing her again. I even got to see her a couple more times after that. She was just a smiling.



Take care, Barbara Jean. I will be in touch soon.

Mil,



We go back a long ways, starting from the early 60's, I had many problems in life and you were always there to lift me up with advice and kind words. I know that you are in the house of the Lord because you displayed so much love here on earth. You always told me to stay in church and follow the Lord. When ever I needed help with my children you were always there providing me with assistance, and when I became a grandmother you were still their lending me a help and hand without charing me one penny. In doing so much for nothing showed me that you were truly an angel sent from heaven to give so much to others and asking nothing in return. Mil, for all that you have done for me and my family I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. You will turly be missed. God Bless.

Mrs. Clark,



It breaks my heart to know that I can no longer see you here on earth, But it makes my heart glad to know that you are pain free and in the house of the Lord. I will missed our conversations but I know that you are with me in spirit. By you being a good person inside and out you have truly left a empty space in so many hearts. So, I want to thank the Lord for sending us an angel so many years ago to give us guidances and sharing so much wisdom especially when it came to cooking you were the best. I know that you are at peace now and has reunited with Mr. Jim. I love you and will miss you so very much. God Bless.

Grandmother



Although we were miles apart, you were always in my heart. The many things you taught me in life as I was growing up will always be remembered. You have earned your rest and spot in Heaven right beside the King of Kings. You will always be around if not in body, definitely in soul and love. My deepest regret is that I will not be there to share in your homecoming, but know that you will always rest in my heart.



Your LOVING GRANDSON Larry E. Clark II and your great-grandchildren, Destiny and Jazzy.
