Clark made headlines as a steer roping champion and a member of the Rodeo Hall of Fame.
Reba explained how she got her competitive nature from her three-time-champion father.
“He made a living by competing and so have I.
The difference in his competition and mine was his winning was determined by a stop watch.
Mine was voted on,” she related in an interview withThe Oklahoman.
“As I’ve grown older, I find I listen like Daddy did before I make a decision.
I get all the information first.”
Upon her father’s passing in 2014, Reba posted a stirring tribute to him onInstagram.
“He had been sick for five years.
He was just taking his time to go on home.”
(Jackie even made a cameo appearance on Reba’s sitcom in 2005!)
In fact, her mother was the one who taught her and her siblings how to sing.
In her interview on “Today,” Reba admitted, “I always did it for Mama.”
In tribute to her late mother, Reba released the song “Seven Minutes in Heaven” in 2023.
The heartfelt lyrics depict the singer wanting to have one more conversation with her dearly departed loved one.
