Marita Clark

Marita Ann Hanusin Clark, 55, a resident of Crestwood, Ky., and formerly of Swoyersville, fell asleep in the Lord early Tuesday morning, Nov. 11, 2025, surrounded by the love of family and close friends in the comfort of her home.

Her loving husband is Stephen E. Clark. Together, Stephen and Marita celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary on June 10.

Born Oct. 5, 1970, in Kingston, Marita was one of two children born to the late George Hanusin, who fell asleep in the Lord on May 27, 2001, and Barbara Shampack Hanusin, who fell asleep in the Lord on March 5, 2025.
