Franki Gill Suter
Franki (Clark) Gill Suter, 74, passed Saturday (Sept. 30, 2017) at her home in Lake Park after a long fight with pancreatic cancer.
She was born Nov. 16, 1942, daughter of the late Florence Delilah Morgan and Lonnie Clark Sr., and raised in Waycross.
She spent nearly 30 years in Fort Worth, Texas where she grew a successful business called Southern Designs that provided small and large-scale construction, remodeling and interior design services.
In Texas, she was active for many years at First Baptist Church Euless. She retired to her vacation home and favorite place of many years — Eureka Springs, Ark. — where she was very active, and made many friends at, First Baptist Penn Memorial Church. Additionally, she was a member of the Abendschone Chapter of Daughters of the American Revolution in Holiday Island, Ark.
She was a force of nature with a dynamic personality who had many friends and never met a stranger. She tackled every challenge that came her way and overcame it with grace and without regret. She loved God, her family and friends, travel, great food and a good cup of coffee.
She will be sorely missed by all whose lives she touched. She is described by friends as “one of a kind,” “classy,” “strong in her faith” and “a great friend.” All of these things, plus so much more, are true.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Jesse Suter, and her brothers, James Lewis ”Jimmy” Clark, Robert Earl Clark, and sisters, Lounell Anderson and Becky Klingensmith.
Survivors include her children, Rhonda Renee Rester (husband, Danny), of Lake Park, Robert “Bobby” Leslie Gill, of Kathleen, Dawna Michelle Gill, of Eureka Springs, Ark., and Robin Gill (husband, Justin Bowers), of Dallas, Texas; her siblings, Ruby Geraldine “Judy” Staten (husband, Lee), of Fitzgerald, Louise Matthews (husband, Tony), of Blackshear, J.C. Clark, of Waresboro, Lonnie Clark “Junior,” of Telmore, David Clark, of Telmore, Danny Clark, of Millwood, and Ray Clark, of Waresboro; nine grandchildren, Jason Rester, Brannon Rester, Jeremy Rester, Ezra Gill, Leslie Gill, Lila Gill, Cary Gill, Riley Cordas and Jordan Cordas; six great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces, nephews and other relatives.
A funeral will be held Saturday at 10 a.m. at Sweat Memorial Baptist Church. Visitation will be held Friday evening from 6 until 8 o’clock at Miles-Odum Funeral Home.
Burial will follow in Telmore Pentecostal Church Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network, Attn: Wage Hope My Way 1500 Rosecrans Ave., Suite 200, Manhattan Beach, Calif. 90266
Miles-Odum Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements.
