Georgia Anna Clark

Georgia Anna (Farris) Clark, age 91, of Sedalia, MO, was received into heaven on March 24, 2025, from her home. Georgia was born on March 28, 1933, in Newnata, AR to Cornelius Brown Farris and Edna Idella (Gower) Farris, and was raised by step-father, Velter Anderson.

Georgia married Clifford Clark in 1988. He preceded her in death in addition to her parents; brother, Parnell Farris; half-sister, Suedy Lou Hancock; half-brother, Velter Anderson, Jr.; and grandson, Dallis Edwin Walker.

She is survived by five children: Idella Watring (Travis), of Otterville, Paulena Rhodes, of Cole Camp, Austin Lewis (Dawn) of Sedalia, Max Lewis (Wanda Jesse), of Columbia, and John Lewis (Debi); step-daughter, Sharon Franks, of Sedalia; six grandchildren; seven great-grandchildren; and two great-great-grandchildren.

Georgia loved getting out of the house to walk around the town, exercising, spending time with her family and reading her Bible. She was the conduit that held the family together through life-long challenges. During family events, Georgia’s home was the center of gathering.

Georgia was a very real presence in her church and community. During her life she was a wonderful mother, grandparent, and friend. She was an active member of the Calvary Baptist Church in Sedalia. Her relationship with Jesus was her life and her love of people shined through in all she did. Georgia’s life was full of hope, joy, and peace, through Jesus Christ.

Graveside services will be at 2:30 p.m. Friday, March 28, 2025, at Memorial Park Cemetery in Sedalia, with Pastor Jonathan Wallenbeck officiating.

Casket bearers will be Layne Lewis, John Lewis, Austin Lewis, Shaun Jackson, Travis Watring, and David Walker.

In lieu of flowers, memorial gifts are recommended to Calvary Baptist Church, in care of Heckart Funeral Home.
