Obituary

It is with profound sadness that the family of Betty Lou Clinard announce her peaceful passing to her heavenly home on March 12, 2023. A Celebration of Life service for Betty will be Wednesday, March 15, 2023 at 1:00 PM at Sykes Funeral Home & Crematory. Burial will follow at Wilee's Chapel Cemetery. Rev. Beverly Dycus will officiate. The family will receive friends from 11:30 AM until the time of service. 

Born to Olen Samuel Griffin and Kate Lee Griffin on May 8, 1943. Betty was born with the heart of a caregiver and dedicated her life to caring for others.

She will be lovingly remembered by her husband of 55 years, Charles Earl Clinard; children: Gregory Clinard (Susan), John Clinard (Kathy), and Jason Clinard (Christy); grandchildren: Kayla Coon (Devin), Caitlin Cox (Scott), and Chris Clinard; great-grandchildren: Brooklynn Jackson, Dahlia Jackson, Ember Coon, Aly Cox, Airam Cox, Bryce Fairfield, and Isabella Clinard; siblings; Sue Elrod and Charles Griffin, and several other family and friends.

She is preceded in death by her mother, father, and sister Shirley Fuller.

Given the opportunity through her husband’s naval career, Betty was able to travel the world with her children to countries like the Azores Islands and Iceland. She retired from Clarksville Memorial Hospital after dedicating years to patient care and compassion. After retirement, she enjoyed spending time with her children and grandchildren and attending various ball games, concerts, and just spending time cooking and laughing with her family.

Betty will be remembered for her laugh, her strong wit, and her dedication to her family. She was the best wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother that her family could’ve asked for and she will truly be missed.

The family wishes to send a special thank you to the staff at the Tennessee Veteran’s Home for their care and compassion.
