Tiffany Kay Ward Clark

Tiffany Kay Ward Clark, age 47, of Murtaugh, Idaho, passed away as a result of an automobile accident near Mountain Home on Sunday, November 4, 2018.  She was born on April 14, 1971, in Twin Falls, Idaho, the second of three daughters to Alan Eugene Ward and Barbara Joyce Gott.

Tiffany resided in Murtaugh the majority of her life, graduating from Murtaugh High School in 1989.  A bit of a tomboy growing up, Tiffany loved riding motorcycles, excelled in athletics, and participated with steers in 4-H and FFA.  She worked many summers for her uncle Mike Gott on his farm in Eden.  Her love of agriculture lead her to enroll in ag classes at the College of Southern Idaho.  Among others, she gained employment with the State Department of Ag, Snake River Farms, and Agri-Stor.

Tiffany married Ryan Clark on June 16, 2000.  On that day she also inherited a beloved son, Tel Clark, who fit right in with our family.  Tiffany and Ryan later divorced; however, they remained good friends.

Everyone loved Tiff!  A mover and a shaker, she was the life of the party – she was fun!  And, she was so darn cute!  She was witty with the best sense of humor, could tell a joke, and always had funny one-liners for everything.  Anytime we could “get the family together” was a highlight for her.  Fishing, trapshooting, four-wheeling in the South Hills, Gotto-Lotto, reunions, BBQs, and holiday gatherings were high on her list.  Tiff was an awesome cook and many looked forward to being on the receiving end of her salsa and pickles.  She shared our mom’s love of country music and relished a trip or two to Jackpot with her.  Tiffany had a heart of gold, always helping someone down on their luck.  She insisted on sharing, even when she didn’t have much herself.  Animals held a soft spot with her, especially dogs.  Tiff was especially proud of her nieces and nephew.  Never showing up to a family function without bags of treats for them, she was affectionately dubbed “The Sugar Aunt.”

Tiffany was preceded in death by her mother Barbara Gott.  She is survived by her father Alan Ward, Murtaugh; step-mother Janette (and all her family) Ward, Kimberly; step-father Mark (Christie) Howard, Athol, Idaho; sisters Stephanie (Greg) Sievers, Murtaugh, and Wendy (Roger) Rountree, Filer; nieces Shailey Sievers, Taylor Sievers, and Piper Rountree; nephew Binson Rountree; former husband Ryan Clark, Bellevue; step-son Tel (Brittney) Clark and children Ava and Baker, Shoshone; and her beloved dog Scooter.  She also leaves behind many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends whom she was extremely close.

Tiffany, Tuff Tiff, Sissay, Tiffy, Tiffay, Sugar Aunt:  Although you left us way too soon, we are so very thankful for the time we shared and all the memories created together.  Forever in our hearts – We love you!

Visitation with the family is Sunday, November 11, from 3:00-5:00 p.m.  The funeral service is Monday, November 12, at 10:00 a.m.  Both are at Parke’s Magic Valley Funeral Home, 2551 Kimberly Rd, Twin Falls, Idaho.  Burial will follow the service at the Twin Falls Cemetery.
