Shirley Marie (Clark) Clark

With heavy hearts and joyful memories, we celebrate the life of Shirley Marie Clark, who found her rest on December 25, 2024, at the age of 77. Born on September 7, 1947, in Oklahoma, Shirley lived a life filled with love and laughter, cherished by her family and friends.

Shirley's life was a tapestry woven with kindness, adventure, and a contagious laugh that echoed in the hearts of everyone she met. As a lover of family gatherings, she will be dearly remembered for creating spaces filled with warmth and joy, where stories flowed freely, and memories were made. She never missed watching her grandchildren and great-grandchildren participate in sports and their many other activities. Shirley enjoyed cooking for family gatherings, watching Days of our Lives and Survivor.

Shirley is survived by children, Angela Emerson and spouse Jacob, Jimmy Unsell and spouse Shannon, Jeff Unsell, Gayla Jacobson and spouse Danny, Gina Hidgon and spouse Shane, and Tina Hardy and spouse John Bedolla; siblings Carolyn Edelman and spouse Armand, David Clark and spouse Kristy; as well as 10 grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren. Her spirit will live on in her family, as they celebrate all the memories and love she shared with them over the years.

She was preceded in death by parents Marie and Russell Clark, as well as her grandparents.

A celebration of Shirley's life will be held at 2:00 PM on Friday, January 10, 2025 at Ingram, Smith & Turner Mortuary. The service will be live-streamed for those who wish to attend virtually.

With a gentle heart and a loving smile, Shirley now journeys to a peaceful place, but her spirit will remain in our memories. As we gather to celebrate her life, let us remember her not with sadness, but with gratitude for the laughter and love she shared.
