“Rest in Peace Grandma, Mom, Sister, Mary M. Klark. You always had a warm cup of coffee, a kind smile, one hand on the bible and another holding our hands. You never asked for anything in return. You have always had patience like a saint, and spoke with so much love, this community and our family have looked up to you and your never-ending compassion towards others. We’re so happy you and Grandpa are back together, and you are no longer in pain. Thank you for loving us and never judging us or turning us away. We love you so much and will carry the lessons you have shared near and dear to our hearts and attempt to not only remember them, but to live them. May your soul be free, and we hope you enjoy the endless games of canasta!”
