Betty Geraldine Mabry Clark

Mrs. Betty Geraldine Mabry Clark, (affectionately known to everyone as Missy) of Fayetteville, GA passed away on October 3, 2022. Mrs. Clark was born in Atlanta, GA on January 17, 1938, to the late Edna Jenkins Mabry and William Lee Mabry. She grew up in Marietta and Sandy Springs. After marrying Leonard B. Clark they lived in Brookhaven, Marietta and Fairburn, and then moved to their beloved Hiawassee, GA. Geraldine was a member of Friendship Baptist Church, Palmetto Georgia. She was a housewife and was devoted to her family and loved spending time with them. She had a special relationship with L. B., her husband of 66 years. Their love and devotion was a blessing and inspiration to their children, grandchildren, family, friends and anyone fortunate enough to be a part of their life. Missy was the epitome of a southern lady, and her home was always open and welcoming. She loved cooking, especially for family and friends and prepared the best southern food. She enjoyed spending time in her kitchen and affectionately referred to it as her office. It truly was her office not only for cooking but also for handling business for Leonard Clark Grading Company. Whether she was playing softball, cooking biscuits and gravy at the campsite on Lake Chatuge or tending to any need Peepaw had, she was a true matriarch. Missy was predeceased by her husband L. B., her parents and all of her siblings except W. L. (Pug) Mabry (Sandra), Don Mabry (Patsy), Flo Ingram (Joe) and Martha Brown.
