Amber Rosa Clark

April 9, 1982 - March 8, 2021

Amber Brielle Rosa Clark was born on April 9, 1982, and went to be with Jesus on March 8, 2021. She was the youngest of eight children, two brothers and five sisters. A devoted wife, daughter, mother, sister, aunt, and friend, she came to know the Lord at a very young age and was baptized on Mother’s Day. She loved her Lord and Savior, and she lived her life to honor and serve him. She was a faithful member of First Baptist Church and studied his word as a member of the Women’s 1 Sunday School Class. She attended Laurel Schools, graduating with honors in 2000. She graduated with a Biology Major and a Chemistry Minor from the University of Mississippi in 2004. She received her Master’s in Education from William Carey. Amber taught Star Reach in the Jones County School District for 16 years, with the last eleven at West Jones Elementary. She loved her students, her fellow teachers, and staff. Teaching was her gift to share; it wasn’t just a job, it was her mission field. It is not a perfect world, but she was perfection in the eyes of all who knew and loved her. She was diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes at the age of nine and lived with the disease every minute of every day for thirty years. This disease did not define her, she lived with it and loved through it. She touched the lives of all who met her, and she was loved by so many. She and her husband, Adam, created a loving Christian home for their two children. She was creative, organized, caring, and giving. She lived by faith, always trying to make a difference. She was a friend to everyone, cherished her family, prayed like an Angel, was tender and humble, and forever ours to love. She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Nicholas and Marie Rosa, James and Burnetta Hilbun, one brother, Kevin Bass, and niece, Brenna Clark. Amber is survived by her husband, Adam Clark; two children, Ryder Scott Walters (13) and Blythe Brielle Clark (8); her parents, Robert and Janet Rosa; five sisters and one brother, Stephanie and David Daughdrill, Janna and Mark Dyess, Heather Bass, Jill and Gabe Windham, Tory and Amy Bass and Angela and Brad Payne: her husband’s family, Jerry and Chellie Clark, Wade and Ty Clark and Jonathan and Charity Clark, along with 21 nieces and nephews and a host of friends and extended family.
