Nan Clark is truly a modern day pioneer woman. Born into a farm family in 1935 she was raised on a farm and married a farmer. She learned to survive during seventy-five years in the booms and busts of the agriculture business. While learning and serving as helpmate to her husband’s farm and cattle operation, she raised three active children, shepherding them through the various FFA activities in Frederick Public Schools in Southwestern Oklahoma. In order to survive Nan has mastered many avocations; among them are professional sewing, pet grooming, and Herford Cattle breeding and showing. She has done all this in addition to all the duties and responsibilities of farm life and motherhood. Throughout her life she has worked 12 hour days seven days a week which is the norm in a farm household.
Like any pioneer woman, Nan is tough as leather and can out work, out drink, out curse any man. And, like most mothers of the early 20th century, she has the tender heart of a loving and caring mother who is moved by the sight of a tiny bird dying, a sad movie, or a beautiful symphony. What you see is what you get with Nan.
Now 75 years old and living alone in Frederick she is near her two surviving children and 9 grandchildren who all live nearby. She lost Doc to brain cancer in 1992 and she has survived since then by sheer determination and skills. She can be reached at nclark@pldi.net.voir moins
