Elizabeth Ann Julian Clark (LizAnn)
"The Giver"
The biggest part of our hearts has moved on to be with Jesus.

She was the best person we've ever known or will ever know.

She was a Daughter, Sister, Aunt, Mother and NaNa to so many she Loved and took care of.
Nana helped everyone, thats just who she was, a giver.

She was a kind ear, a caregiver. a provider, a baby sitter. You could always depend on Nana to be there, that's just who she was.

We will miss her terribly, she was the rock that held us all together and made us who we are.
We all have a part of her in us, She was our family center piece.
We will carry her in our hearts forever.
We Love You NaNa!
