ROBERT CLARK Obituary

ROBERT CLARK Einan's at Sunset Robert James Clark (83) originally of Dover New Hampshire, died August 7th, 2017 in Richland Washington surrounded by his family. He was born September 28th, 1933 to Thomas and Veronica (O'Gara) Clark. Bob was the youngest of nine children. He attended St. Mary's Catholic School in Dover. He met Peggy (Davis) Clark while she was singing in a nightclub and were married September 21, 1968. Together they raised two daughters. Bob leaves behind his wife Peggy, daughters Lisa Ronnquist and Susan McLain and husband Andy. Grandchildren: Matthew Mason, Jacob, Maggie, Robert and Cameron McLain, as well as many nieces and nephews. Bob was an avid hiker. He loved hiking in New Hampshire's White Mountains. He enjoyed refinishing antique furniture and the challenge of making the old look new again. In his later years he loved to read, hanging out at Shari's Restaurant and being a part of the Holy Spirit Catholic Church. For those that knew Bob one theme was carried throughout his entire life, he was a kidder. With a twinkle in his eye he loved to joke and tease. His wit was unmatched and will be missed. As he always liked to say, he has "Gone Home." A Catholic funeral will be held on Friday, August 18th, 2017 at 11:00am at Parish of the Holy Spirit Church, 7409 W. Clearwater Ave Kennewick WA That evening there will be an open house memorial held in the church hall from 5 to 8pm.

The hole in my heart is so painful. I need just one more minute with you. Like you said the accident was horrible but it reminded you and showed you how much we all loved you. As hard as it was Daddy i would do it again and again without hesitation. You and mom raised two girls with great senses of humor and big hearts that people around us enjoy. My humor is WAY better than Suzies. Thank you. I miss you immensely.

Rest in peace, Bob Clark. It's a long ways from riding in to the Navy Yard to work on the midnight shift. I pray that the grief at the passing of such a great man is short for your own ones.
