Clear, 85° F
Patricia Kay (Clark) Torczon, 76, of Clark, passed away on Aug. 17, 2024. Kay was born Jan. 4, 1948 in Basin, Wyoming, to Sheldon Lynn and Irene Mills Clark. She was the fifth child out of 10 and definitely tended towards the stubborn middle child personality. Or maybe that was just the Clark part of her.
Kay graduated high school from Cody, Wyoming, in 1967 and then married her soulmate, Robert (Bob) Torczon on Jan. 20, 1968. They began their married life in Cody and then moved to the log cabin on the place right after Christina was born. Together they raised their three children, Christina, Douglas and Raymond, in their home base in Clark, Wyoming. Clark has been their home for the majority of their 56 years together. Kay loved to read. You would find her most days with a book in her hand. She enjoyed crafting, crocheting and especially loved card and marble games, as well as the many hours she spent visiting with family and friends while Bob entertained with his banjo.
Kay is survived by her husband Bob; daughter Christina (John) Frank and their children Kane, Jeremiah, Lauren, Morgan and Haley; Douglas (Lisa) and their children Darren (his daughter Josephine), Sarah and Madison (Collin and Ava); siblings Dave Clark, Sherry Berens, Jo Bryson, Ronald Clark and Jack Clark; and many beloved nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents, her son Raymond, siblings Robert (Larry), Donald, Barbara and Alvin (Sonny).
In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to the American Heart Association or the American Diabetes Association in her memory.
Mass of Christian Burial will be at St. Barbara’s Catholic Church on Friday, Aug. 23, 2024, at 10 a.m. with committal services to follow at Bennett Buttes Cemetery in Clark. A reception will be held at the Clark Community Center following the committal.
