Marilyn Clarke, age 85, of Stansbury Park, Utah, passed away on June 24, 2026, surrounded by loved ones. Born on September 11, 1940, in Aurora, Illinois, Marilyn grew up with a spirited love for life. As a girl, she played baseball with the neighborhood boys and was a devoted Chicago Cubs fan. She met her husband, Noall Clarke, at a church social in Chicago, Illinois. They were married on June 6, 1970, in the Manti Utah Temple and moved to Utah, where they built their home and raised their family. Marilyn was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother whose love and selflessness knew no bounds. She sacrificed everything for her family, pouring her heart into raising her six children. Marilyn is survived by her husband, Noall Clarke; her five living children, Jason, Troy, Shauna, Adam, and Tiffani; and many beloved grandchildren and extended family members. She was preceded in death by her oldest daughter, Cari, who passed away two years ago. A woman of deep kindness and compassion, Marilyn found great joy in traveling. She made several trips to Russia, where she delivered much-needed insulin and other medical supplies to children and adults with diabetes. She also had a creative spirit and loved arts and crafts, delighting her family each year with beautifully handmade and intricately decorated birthday and Christmas cards. Marilyn's warm smile, gentle heart, and unwavering dedication to her family will be remembered by all who knew her. She leaves behind a legacy of love, faith, and strength that will continue to inspire her children, grandchildren, and everyone whose life she touched. Funeral services will be held on Wednesday, July 1, 2026, at 10:45 a.m. at the Millpond Ward Chapel, 417 Benson Road, Stansbury Park, Utah. A viewing will be held prior to the service from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. Interment will follow at the Stansbury Park Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial contributions in Marilyn's memory to organizations that support diabetes care for children or local arts and crafts programs for seniors.
