Sheila Lynn Brown Clark
Sheila Lynn Brown Clark, 58, graduated to her eternal life in heaven on Friday, January 17, 2025.
Born on Feb. 26, 1966, in Hialeah, FL to Martin and Lynn Brown, and later moving to Chattanooga when she was three, Sheila attended Hamilton County Public Schools, and was a proud graduate of Tyner High School’s 1984 class, majoring in Social Studies, but not the Social Studies we all know. Sheila was a social butterfly, who never met a stranger.
After high school, Sheila went on to study nursing at Chattanooga State, and became a Licensed Practical Nurse, serving in pediatrics and later serving at Chattanooga International Medicine for Dr. Patrick Ryan.
Sheila was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in early 2002, and was forced to retire from her lifelong passion for patient care in 2013. Although retired, Sheila would not allow her illness to keep her from enjoying life and spending time with her family and friends. Sheila loved to travel, shop, and most of all, spend time with her eight grandchildren.
Sheila leaves behind to cherish her many memories, a loving husband and caretaker of 23 years, Jason Clark; two sons, Justin Moller and Tyler (Victoria) Moller; step-daughter, Caitlyn Clark; eight grandchildren, Braedyn Moller, Lindsay Moller, Lily Clark, Maverick Moller, Molly Moller, Jaxon Clark, Parker Moller, and Laney Weems; mother-in-law, Jacqueline Clark; daughter-in-law, Julie Moller; brother-in-law, Ken Walker (Natasha), sister-in-law, Christy Burgner (Ackworth, Ga.); two very special nephews, T.J., and Austin Brown (Ackworth, Ga.), as well as her beloved Boxers, Mili and Izzy.
Additionally, Sheila leaves behind a very special group of friends: Dottie Ingle Willmore, who was a lifelong friend and cared for Sheila daily for over 10 years, Amy Weems, who has been in Sheila’s circle for over 25 years, and Susie Magnuson who has been in Sheila’s life since junior high school.
All of your care and support has meant the world to Sheila and the entire family throughout the years. We would also like to thank the family members of the above-mentioned who worked behind the scenes and selflessly allowed the three special ladies to assist Sheila and I during the last decade.
To the many friends that Sheila had at Chattanooga Internal Medicine Group, each of you meant the world to Sheila, and she spoke of you often.
Thank you to the Weber, Burnette, and Lane families for always calling, or dropping in to visit Sheila through the years. Each visit and phone call was definitely a highlight in Sheila’s life.
The family would like to thank Dr. Forrest Sowell for their care and support throughout the years. Your compassion and care means the world to us.
We would also like to thank our church family at Maple Groove Baptist. Though Sheila’s condition prevented her from attending services, we rarely missed a live feed and the opportunity to worship in the comfort of our home.
The family requests no flowers, none of them would last anyway because Jason would forget to water them and you would be wasting your money.
In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to your local Humane Society or St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital.
The family will receive friends on Saturday, Feb. 1, from 1-4 p.m. at Turner Funeral Home. A Celebration of Life will follow at 4 p.m. with Pastor Ronnie Dotson leading the service.
