Kent Arnold Clark, 61, of Clifford, passed away Saturday, November 22, 2025.

Kent was born April 4, 1964 to the late Keith and Beverly (Raymond) Clark. He married SuzAnne Tallieu on February 14, 1991, beginning a lifetime of love and companionship. Together they built a family he cherished above all else. Kent was a true Michigan sports fan through and through, always ready to cheer on his teams with pride. He never passed up a chance to sing karaoke, bringing smiles to anyone that heard him. In his younger years, Kent played softball, but in recent years he found his greatest enjoyment golfing alongside his son and grandson. He had a spirited love for mud volleyball, NASCAR, and Dale Earnhardt, passions that added excitement and energy to his days. Kent could often be found sitting by the bonfire, his oasis of relaxation and reflection. Above all, Kent loved spending time with his family, especially watching his grandchildren play sports. Together they made many memories his family will always cherish.

Kent is survived by his wife, SuzAnne Clark; children, Erica Jentzen, Anthony Clark, Kateland (Kevin Stanko) Clark; grandchildren, Trinity Jentzen, Xavier Jentzen, Jaxon Clark, Austin Cox, Alexander Stanko, and Brinley Stanko; siblings, Carol (Lloyd) Lisek, Schelly (Harrold) Howard, Lori (Dave) Donaghy; mother-in-law, Judy Harrold; sisters-in-law, Angie Clark, Kaye (Wayne) Siemen; brothers-in-law, Tim Wilczak, Doug (Diane) Tallieu, Joe (Kathy) Tallieu, and Andy (Glenda) Tallieu; many nieces and nephews; and close friends, Galen Broughton, Mary Hoig, Ann Contreras and Tina (Doug) Trelsa.

Kent was preceded in death by his parents, Keith and Beverly Clark; sister, Julie Wilczak; brothers, Al Clark, Bryon Clark and Steve Cinader; father-in-law, Chuck Harrold; brother-in-law, George Hobson; and two nephews, Nolan Farrell and Bradley Clark.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
