Ruth Clark Obituary
We are sad to announce that on April 23, 2026 we had to say goodbye to Ruth Clark of Joplin, Missouri. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid adieu to Ruth's earthly form, let us not dwell on the void left in her wake, but rather celebrate the legacy of love and inspiration Ruth has bequeathed us. For though she may have departed from our sight, her spirit remains a timeless beacon, guiding loved ones through the labyrinth of life's journey.
She was predeceased by: her parents, Clarence Alford and Dinah Alford (Ziemer); her husband Charles Clark; and her daughter Nancy Bruffey. She is survived by: her children, Dan Clark (Avis) of Duquesne, Missouri, David Clark of Wentzville, Missouri, Diana Gladfelter (Greg) of Warrensburg, Missouri, Joyce Stephens (Perry) of Bella Vista, Arkansas and Carol McDonald (Tim) of Greer; and her sister Rita Gunter of Ontario, Canada. She is also survived by numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
