Husband #1: Andrew George Clark [1891-1950]
Husband #2: John E. Flack [1906-1985]
First of all I would like to thank my new Cousin Mary for finding Grandmas information and turning over this memorial to me. Mary has worked very hard piecing all of the genealogy together so that future generations can teach their children about the wonderful lineage that they come from. God Bless you Mary!
I am Nannies Granddaughter. She and her first Husband Andrew had 3 wonderful boys, one being my Dad, William Clark, his brother Lloyd, and youngest Delbert. While living in Dibble Oklahoma in the early 1900's, the family was there when the dustbowl happened. There is a cemetery in Dibble where many of Grandmas Gilliland relatives are buried. Like many other families Nannie and Andrew packed up what they had and headed to the orange groves of Southern California.
My first Grandfather Andrew, worked at a nursery in Southern California and provided for his family. They bought a small house in Ontario that Nannie resided in until she moved in with family members late in her life. I never knew Andrew since he was killed in an automobile accident in 1950 coming home from a visit with his first grandchild Lenore, Delbert and Lois' first child. He was thrown from the car and died on impact. Grandma was in the car also but only suffered a broken arm.
We lived in Alaska but would make many trips to So. California where she lived in Ontario. We spent many Christmas' with the family and would also visit in the summer. There were always huge family get togethers and I remember her practically living in the kitchen. She would no sooner finish one meal and she would be starting another. No one ever went hungry at Grandmas. She used to bake open face mozzerella cheese sandwiches in her big gas oven just for me. Those were my favorites. I loved visiting Grandmas house! She had fruit trees in her back yard and beautiful flowers everywhere. Later we moved to Oregon and it was even easier to visit her. My Dad and I decided one afternoon on the spur of the moment to pack my car up and go visit in the early 1980's. I think that was one of the most special times in my life. A true Father-Daughter adventure ending up at Grandmas house.
Grandma was married to John Flack the entire time that I was alive. He was the only Grandpa that I knew. He was a wonderful quiet man and would take me on many walks and explain different types of plant life.
One year Grandma came to visit us up in Oregon. She had never flown on an airplane before or after her visit. When she arrived she told us that she had sat next to some movie star. It turned out that she was seated next to Leanord Nimoy that played "Spock" on Star Trek! She said he was a very nice man but wasn't impressed that he was famous.
I remember my Mom, Grandma, and I picking wild blackberries along the country roadsides up in Oregon. We picked gallons of them and spent days canning them and making blackberry cobbler. She never changed, her comfort zone was in the kitchen.
Grandma was a simple woman. She didn't have much money but always made sure that all of her grandchildren always had a small gift for Christmas and I remember the $5.00 bill that accompanied all of my Birthday Cards. I still have the 10 Commandment Bracelet that she sent me one year.
She always read her Bible and lived her life according to those beliefs. I never remember her complain about anything. Her Bible was always next to her chair in the living room. It was well worn. I know that she is with our Lord and Savior probably baking up a storm for Him and anyone else that is there. She was the best Grandma that anyone could ever ask for. The most important thing to her was her family.
