She is survived by her husband; one son, Lloyd Clark of Iowa Falls; the daughter, Bernice, who now lives in Tulsa, Okla.; three grandchildren; one great grandchild; her mother, Mrs. Luvina Duff of Chillicothe, Mo.; two sisters, Mrs. William Mathews of Chillicothe, and Mrs. John Horras of Winterset, and four brothers, Frank, and Walter Duff of Winterset, and Charles, of Chillicothe and Willie Duff of Norwalk.
