Jeffery Paul Clark, 72, of 160 Mountain Road, Northumberland, passed away Saturday, Sept. 20, 2025, at his home with his wife and daughter by his side.

Jeff was born June 23, 1953, in Sunbury, to the late John E. and Helen L. Clark. He was married to Theresa Clark (Shultz) for more than 27 years, who survives.

He was a graduate of Shikellamy High School and a member of Trinity United Methodist Church of Northumberland.

Jeff worked at TRW and Textron in Danville, where he formed wonderful friendships and eventually met his wife. Upon the plant's closure, he utilized his precise DIY skills, teamed up with his wife, and rejuvenated and maintained their privately owned rental properties.

He enjoyed great music of all kinds, amassing quite a collection of vinyls. He also enjoyed golfing, watching football, and NASCAR, but the great joy of his life was just spending time with his grandkids. He taught them how to be pool and card sharks, and checker kings. Time spent with Grammy and Grandpa will always be treasured.

In addition to his wife, he is survived by his daughter and son-in-law, Heather and Christopher Shaffer; his grandchildren, Robert "Bobby," Helena and Mason; his son Michael Clark; two brothers and sisters in law, David and Sally Clark, Rodger and Linda Clark; and niece and nephew, Kristen and Nicholas.

He was preceded in death by two nephews, Scott and Steve Clark.

As per Jeffery's wishes, there will be no services. A celebration of life will be at the convenience of the family.
