Janet Rose Sims passed away on October 10, 2023, at her home surrounded by her family. She was born on October 18, 1948, in Ayr, Scotland to the late Charles and Charlotte McKie Clark. She was a loving mother, ma, and friend to everyone she met. She was a Registered Nurse until she retired in 2009, but she continued being a nurse and caregiver to her family and friends. When she wasn't caring for others, she enjoyed making crafts and attending craft fairs with her friends. Her greatest joy came from being surrounded by her family, especially her grandbabies. She had an amazing gift of making everyone feel loved and she welcomed so many into her home over the years.

In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her brother John Clark, beloved mother and father in-law, Tom Frank and Emogene Sims, sister and brother in-law Jean Ann and Bobby Chambers, and brother in-law, Glenn "Buckshot" Sims.

Survivors include her husband of 55 years, Tommy Sims
