Ruth Ann Clark
May 27, 1954 — April 14, 2017
Ruth Ann Clark, age 62, passed peacefully in her sleep on Friday, April 14, 2017. Born to Glen Arthur Pratt and Lois Ruth Evans on May 27, 1954 in Salt Lake City, she was a lifelong area resident. Dedicated to service and a devoted member of the LDS church, Ruth was committed to the Relief Society efforts, equal rights for women, contributing to impoverished communities, and volunteering as a docent at the Church History Museum. An avid traveler with an insatiable thirst for knowledge, she graduated with a degree in history from The University of Utah in 2000. She inspired people around her and those beyond to live with integrity, love, and joy by doing those things herself.
The ripple effect of Ruth’s life remains with us through her kindness and open-hearted acceptance of others and the ability to find the positive in any situation. Her class, charisma, and charm will never be forgotten. She is survived by her husband Day Clark; her children Aaron Clark, Alana Owen (David Owen), James Clark, and Emily Clark; 5 grandchildren; and 3 siblings: Jim (Debbie) Pratt, Ed (Julie) Pratt, Charmaine (Toby) Folland. Preceded in death by her sister, Julie (William) Shanks.
A viewing and service in appreciation of Ruth’s life will be held at the LDS Stake Center located at 9880 South 3100 East Sandy, UT 84092. The family will receive friends on Friday April 21, 2017 from 6-8 p.m. and the funeral service will be held Saturday April 22, 2017 at 11am with a viewing prior to the service at 9:30 a.m.
The family suggests memorial contributions in memory of Ruth be sent to her favorite non-profit called Heifer International. This organization empowers families to turn hunger and poverty into hope and prosperity. https://fundraise.heifer.org/ruthannclark
