Ann Clark Obituary
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Ann Sylvia Clark, who left this world on March 19, 2024, in Avondale, Arizona at the age of 81. Born on May 14, 1942, in Kings Lynn, Norfolk, England, Ann was the cherished daughter of the late Wilfred J. and Alice G. (Hatton) Howlett.
Ann's gentle and compassionate nature made her a beloved figure in the lives of all who knew her. Her presence was a comfort, and she was often thought of as the maternal figure everyone desired. Her legacy is carried on through her loving family and the countless memories shared over her favorite pastimes-knitting, sewing, embroidery, and various other crafts that she not only enjoyed but also used to bring warmth and beauty into the lives of others.
She is lovingly remembered by her children, daughters Jackie and Tracy, and son Christopher; her devoted sons-in-law, Don and Lawrence; her caring daughter-in-law, Marcela; her adored grandchildren, Kayla, Breona, Justin, and Moy; and her treasured great-grandchildren, Evan and Veda.
A service to celebrate Ann's life will be scheduled at a later date, where loved ones will gather to honor her memory and the joy she brought into their lives.
In lieu of customary remembrances, the family requests that donations be made in Ann's name to the Dementia Society of America. Contributions can be sent by mail to PO Box 600, Doylestown, PA 18901, or made online at www.DementiaSociety.org/donate.
Ann's warmth and kindness will forever be etched in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know her. May she rest in peace, and may her spirit continue to inspire acts of love and generosity in her memory.

My family first met Ann, Jacki and Christopher in the mid 1960s. They all were fun to spend time with.

A mother is your first friend. She was my best friend. I will cherish the memories we created as we grew together.
