Osbie Gibson Clark

Prophet Osbie Clark, daughter of the late Deacon Grady Valentine and Lizzie Bell Valentine, was born November 13, 1951 and departed her life on Friday, January 14, 2022 after a short illness.

Osbie, who was fondly called “Mammy”, attended Chestnut Consolidated High School in Horry County, SC. She was a homemaker, a devoted wife and a community mom to the Flag Patch Community. At an early age she joined True Way Holiness Church, where she served as a youth Sunday school teacher, an usher and served on the cooking committee. She then moved her membership under her husband and leader as God appointed him into Pastorialship in 2006, at the Deliverance Church of Christ, Apostolic Faith, as she served as a devoted Mother of the Church.

She was united in holy matrimony to her loving husband of 46 years to Bishop Junior Clark. This union was blessed with six children: Rosa Magia, Johnny Milton, Audrey (John) Thomas, Pastor Junior Leon II (Joel) Clark, Rachel Clark, April Clark; one daughter-in-law and one son-in-law that she leaves her loving memories to. Preceding her in death are one sister, Febbie Lou Wilson and two brothers: Rainey Valentine and Freddie Valentine.
