WENDY CLARK
IDAHO FALLS, ID -- Wendy Lynn Clark, 41, of Idaho Falls, died January 23, 2007, at her home.
She was born March 2, 1965, in Blackfoot, Idaho, to Howard Brent and Patricia Ann Clark. She attended schools in Blackfoot and Idaho Falls, graduating from Bonneville High School.
Wendy married Eric Hymas in Idaho Falls in 1981. They lived in Montana, Colorado, Oregon and Idaho. They were later divorced. Wendy was blessed with five children. She worked at a variety of jobs, including veterinarian assistant, grocery clerk, secretary and sales assistant. She was employed at Sears at the time of her death.
She enjoyed caring for her animals, outdoor activities, hunting, fishing, camping and anything that would let her start a water fight. Her life became much brighter with the addition of her grandchildren,

Dear Clark family, I am so sorry to hear about your mother. I had Brody in Kindergarten last year and I enjoyed getting to know Wendy. She was a very upbeat person and was very good to us at school. Please know that my prayers are with you and tell Brody hello for me.
Sincerely,
