Mrs. Gloria June Underwood Clark

Gloria June Underwood Clark quietly left her earthly body behind and found a new body in a much better land on Tuesday, December 4, 2012. She was 88 ½ years old. June lived her life as a devoted mother to eight children and as full-time Pastor's wife. The Clark family moved to and lived in many areas of Virginia during Rev. Clifford Clark's ministry with The Church of God of Prophecy. Her husband, Rev. Clifford O. Clark, Sr., passed away in 1995 and her only son, and the youngest of all eight of her children, Clifford O. Clark, Jr., passed away just three months ago on August 26, 2012 after a very brief battle with throat cancer. She was born in Franklin County on May 7, 1924 to the late Willard and Cassie Thompson Underwood. In addition to her parents she was preceded in death by her brothers, Garner Underwood and Kenneth Underwood, and her sister, Carol Taylor.
She leaves behind seven daughters and spouses, Barbara and Ronnie Rakes of Patrick Springs, Virginia, Carolyn and Ray Goard of Patrick Springs, Virginia, Jeanette and Lonnie Frazier of Cornelius, North Carolina, Martha and Mike Nyquist of Meadows of Dan, Virginia, Diane and Bobby Gravely of Dublin, Virginia, Ruth and Elton Shelton of Pulaski, Virginia, and Debbie and Doug Jackson of Castle Hayne, North Carolina. Grandma Clark as she was known to the grandchildren leaves behind nine grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren. She is also survived by two sisters, Myrna Wilson of Axton and Linda Poore of Bassett; and two brothers, Lester Underwood of Spencer and Keith Underwood of Arizona.
