Lynova Alez Clark of Riverside, New Mexico passed away peacefully on March 13, 2018. She was the daughter of Stella (Ramsey) and Nugent Lockney who spent their lives running mining claims and sawmills in the southwest NM area.

Lynova was born on February 25, 1933 in Hot Springs, New Mexico. She graduated from Hot Springs High School in 1951 as class valedictorian. She was a wonderful friend, mother, grandmother and wife. She was married to Richey Clark for 38 years. Lynova enjoyed contributing art to her family welding business. She will greatly be missed by daughter, Shalana Wilder as well as all her extended family and friends. Lynova had a wonderful life, full of adventure (halibut fishing in Alaska) and accomplishments (learning to fly, retiring as an Industrial Engineer). She was happy doing anything. It was a running joke if someone mentioned "go", she was already in the car. She like hunting, waterskiing, tubing, painting, and dancing and as those who knew and loved her, she enjoyed a great meal and especially dessert.

In lieu of flowers, please feel free to contribute to your favorite charity. Special thanks to the staff at Gila Regional Medical Center and Silver City Care Center for all their compassion and care.

Cremation has been entrusted to Baca's Funeral Chapels. Services will be scheduled at a later date.
