Kimberly Todd "G.K." Clay

Kimberly Todd Clay, age 60, of Rockwood, Tennessee, passed away peacefully on March 22, 2026, surrounded by her family and friends who loved her dearly.

Born on June 4, 1965, in Rockwood, Tennessee, Kimberly was a lifelong member of the community she loved so dearly. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, and friend whose presence brought comfort and strength to all who knew her. She was preceded in death by her father, Hobert Todd.

Kimberly graduated from Rockwood High School in 1983, carrying with her the strong roots and values of her hometown throughout her life.

Kimberly is survived by her loving husband, Phillip Clay; her children, Brent Ward (Kelsey), Bryanne Clowers (Josh), and Savanna Williams (Austin); and her cherished grandchildren, Kallie, Kailynn, Canyon, Brody, Kolton, Brentleigh, Kalvin, Emelia, Elizabeth, and Ero. She also held a special place in her heart for her exchange granddaughter from Italy, Eleonora Marcorin.

She is also survived by her mother, Barbara Todd; her brothers, Bryan Todd and Kevin Todd (Tammy); and a large extended family of nieces and nephews whom she loved dearly.

Kimberly’s love extended beyond people to her beloved dogs—Marley, Nugget, Lainey, and Creed—who she treasured as part of her family. She was also deeply supported and loved by her babysitter, Amy Daugherty, her special sister-in-law, Kathy Bragg, who provided care and companionship, and Cassie Farris, who was like a daughter to her and helped care for her.

Kimberly dedicated many years of her life to the Animal Medical Center, where she served as office manager. She was admired and loved by her coworkers and clients alike for her kindness, dedication, and warm spirit.

A faithful member of North Rockwood Baptist Church, Kimberly’s life was a reflection of her deep and unwavering faith. Her strength, determination, and grace carried her through life’s challenges and inspired everyone around her.

“Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.” — Proverbs 31:25 (KJV)

Her radiant smile and joyful laugh were a reflection of the light and love she carried in her heart, cherished by all who knew her.

Those who knew Kimberly will remember her as strong-willed, compassionate, and full of faith. Her unwavering belief, loving heart, and enduring spirit will forever remain in the lives she touched.

Though she is no longer with us, her legacy of love, faith, and resilience will continue to shine through her family and all who were blessed to know her.
