Barbara Clark, age 84, resident of Tunnel Hill, Georgia, passed away on Saturday, October 5, 2024 at her residence.
Mrs. Clark, daughter of the late William M Ridley and Nancy Cordelia Hensley Ridley, was born December 6, 1939 in Chatsworth, Georgia. She was a member of Keith Baptist Church and retired from Ridgewood Manor in Dalton, Georgia where she faithfully served as the Dietician.
