Cornelia Clark, age 71, passed away overnight this Friday after a brief battle with cancer. Governor Bill Lee has ordered that all flags fly at half-staff across the state in her honor. Her public service to the judiciary and the community lasted over four decades. Clark was the first female trial judge to serve rural counties in Tennessee and was an active member in her church and the Franklin community.
