Laura married Lonnie Dwain Clark in 1954, raising four cherished children in Brownfield, TX.

Devoted to her faith, family, and community, Laura served in many capacities at First Baptist Church. She particularly enjoyed youth and teen ministry where she served as a Sunday School teacher. Laura hosted her large family, friends, and friends of friends often. Her community benefited from her willingness to volunteer. Laura had the vision to see what needed to be done and the skills and energy to achieve. Laura loved to sew and her needlework was artistry.
