compassion, gracefully departed from this world on April 26, 2024, at the age

She was reunited in eternal peace with her beloved
husband, Bruce Clark, her dear mother, Ethel (Morgan) Murphy, her father,
Thomas F. Murphy, her brother, Richard Murphy, and her sister, Sharon (Murphy)
Magaldi.
Left to honor her memory are her cherished daughter,
Starletta (Murphy) Knudson, her devoted son-in -law, Derek Knudson, and her
beloved grandchildren: Brandon Cecil, Alexandra Knudson, and Derek Knudson Jr.
Anne's brothers, Thomas Murphy, sister-in-law, Fran Murphy, and Mark Murphy,
sister-in -law, Ruth Murphy & a brother-in-law, Thomas Magaldi; and a host of
nieces and nephews also mourn her passing.
Anne's heart radiated with warmth and kindness, touching
the lives of all who had the privilege of
knowing her. Her smile was a beacon of joy, capable of
lighting up any room. Anne possessed a quick
wit, intelligence, and an unwavering work ethic, traits
that endeared her to colleagues and friends alike.
She found immense fulfillment in her work family at
Advanced America, where she was respected and
loved by all.
Anne's passions were as vibrant as her spirit. She had a
deep love for music, particularly The Beatles,
and found solace in the companionship of her dogs. Her
compassion knew no bounds, and she
dedicated herself to helping those in need, always
extending a helping hand to friends and strangers
alike.
Anne Murphy-Clark's departure leaves a void that can
never be filled, but her legacy of love, laughter,
and kindness will endure for generations to come. May her
soul rest in eternal peace, knowing she was
cherished beyond measure, and her light will continue to
shine brightly in the hearts of all who knew
her.
