Mrs. Elizabeth Allen Clark, age 56, of Ellijay, Georgia, passed away on Thursday, February 5, 2026.

Elizabeth was born on June 13, 1969, in Atlanta, Georgia, to the late Joel Anthony "Tony" Allen and Marian Scroggins Allen. She was a faithful member of Pleasant Hill Baptist Church, where her love for the Lord was evident in the way she lived her life—with kindness, humility, and grace.
