"AUNT FANNIE CLARK
   Some people live their lives so well that the influence they have exerted extends in a very large circle. So it was with Aunt Fannie Clark who died at her home in El Monte, Calif., on July 21. Because of the richness of her life, at the services that were held for her, her minister took as his text, "She brake the box--and the house filled with the odour of the ointment."
   Aunt Fannie devoted her life to the church. She broke the alabaster box that holds one's life to selfish pursuits and literally 'poured out' her life as a thank offering to God and to the benefit of others. By sacrificing selfish motives she blessed all who came within the orbit of her influence. The gentle touch of her life made one conscious of the reality of Christian living. According to her minister, her religion was not a dead theory, it was a living practical reality.
   The story of her life that was read at her funeral is as follows:
   Mary Frances Teel was born in Denton, Texas, March 10, 1869; departed this life to be with her Lord, July 21, 1950 at El Monte, California at the age of 81 years, 4 months and 11 days. Her father Elijah Teel, moved from Texas when she was 9 months of age, journeying to California in a covered wagon drawn by oxen. He settled near Santa Ana, California where Frances spent the major portion of her girlhood.
   She was converted at an early age and became very active as an evangelistic singer and worker in the early days of the Holiness movement in southern California and Arizona. It was while thus engaged in a gospel tent meeting in her birthplace in Denton, Texas that she met Joe Tate Clark, who later became her husband.
   They were united in marriage at the home of her father in Santa Ana, California on December 25, 1894. They made their home in southern California, continuing for some time in gospel work together. Later they moved to Willcox, Arizona where they lived for several years.
   God blessed their home with one son, Joseph Howard, and five daughters, Mary Grace, Ethel Hope, Luella Faith, Cornelia Ruth and Martha Violet.
   In 1933 she made her home on the Holiness camp grounds at El Monte, California, living in her little cottage and being a blessing to all of her acquaintances. She was a faithful member of the El Monte church and served faithfully as a deaconess, ministering to the community and making life more worthwhile for discouraged souls. No task was considered too menial, no chore too distasteful. She was always willing to do what she could for everyone. She was one of God's choice saints and all will miss her keenly. As Dorcas of old, her labors of love will live on after her departure. Truly a great saint has fallen in Israel, but our loss is heaven's gain.
   She leaves to mourn her passing: one sister, Callie Morgan of El Monte, California; four daughters, Mary Grace Evans of Prescott, Arizona, Ethel Hope Carlyle of Los Angeles, California, Carnelia [Cornelia] Ruth Gardner of Willcox, and Martha Violet Whalen of Tucson; one son Joseph Howard Clark of Willcox; nineteen grandchildren; ten great grandchildren and a host of relatives and friends. We sorrow not as those who have no hope, but anticipate that great resurrection morning when we shall see her at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb."
