Patsy Vedder Clark
April 28, 2022
Our world has said goodbye to an amaz
ing, one-of-a-kind lady, as Patsy peacefully
passed away with family by her side on
Thursday, April 28,2022 at the age of 78.
She has been reunited with her parents,
Roland and Ernestine Vedder; her husband
of 56 years, James Clark; her brother, Wil
liam and nephew, Will.
Patsy is survived by her sister, Rose Anne
Vedder; sister-in-law, Kay Hudmon; daughter, Beth Allen
(Mike); son, James Clark (Shelly), step-daughter, Karlene
Finlayson(David), 8 grandchildren, 8 great-grandchildren
and many cousins, nieces, nephews and friends that loved
her dearly.
Patsy cherished her family and friends and always did
for others without expecting anything in return. Her
children, grandchildren and great grandchildren held a
very special place in her heart and always put a smile on
her face.
She was an educator in N.Y. state who enjoyed every
minute in the classroom teaching and influencing stu
dents of all ages. She taught all of us the importance of
reading, writing, "CARPE DIEM", "Seize the Day" and
enjoy life while you can! Upon retirement, she re-located
from Canada back to her birth town of Forsyth and con
tinued spreading her knowledge and kindness.
Besides her beautiful gardens, another passion of hers
was the Writers Group. She loved writing, helping others
to write and participating with so many great friends.
In keeping with Patsy's wishes, cremation has taken
place with Monroe County Memorial Chapel. A Celebra
tion of Life service will be held at Christ United Methodist
Church, 417 Frontage Rd, Forsyth, GA 31029 on Saturday,
May 7,2022 at 1 p.m. and a second with her Canadian
friends and family at a later date.
Thank you to all that helped over the past few months
with care and concerns.
Mr. Woody and Angie for their calls to Canada, Mike
and Dennis for dropping everything to make it possible
for me to be in Georgia for the duration, Carie and her
visits to help with home care, Tina and her visits to the
hospital, hospice and to help with my sanity, great neigh
bors, friends and family (too many to list) for their visits
and kind words and the local Fire Station and EMS ser
vices for their continued support during our tough days.
Many thanks to the amazing staff at Brightmoor Hos
pice in Griffin who took extra special care of Patsy during
her last week.
In lieu of flowers, contributions in memory of Patsy can
be made to the American Liver Foundation. https://liver-
