Ruth Clark

Ruth Clark 63, of Live Oak FL was called home to be with our Lord and Savior Monday September 1, 2025.

She was born in Waterville Maine and lived in Albion, daughter of Harvey and Virginia Clark on October 10th 1961.

Ruth attended Albion Elementary and spent her Summer days riding bikes and playing down by the Mill Stream. Her Winter days were spent sledding and ice skating in the Taylor farm fields next to her childhood home.

She graduated from Lawrence High School in 1980. After High School she spent some time crafting and sewing children's stuffed toys, blankets, and diaper bags which she sold on consignment at a local gift shop.

She took a job at CF Hathaway Shirt Co. where she was part of a two person, 4th floor Front Unit team, working side-by-side with her twin sister Rose.

After the mill closed, she took a position with the US Postal Service, where most of her service years were spent at the Hallowell Post Office. She stopped working and moved with her husband, Michael Clark to their home in Live Oak FL after receiving her diagnosis of FTD. Ruth spent the rest of her days battling her terminal disease in Florida.

She is survived by her husband Michael, of 34 years, Step daughters Jennifer Crawford and Dr. Micheala Clark- Kelly.

Brother Bruce Clark of Fairfield, Sister Cheryl Gould of Vassalboro, and many Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Nieces, Nephew, and Friends too numerous to mention.

Ruth is predeceased by her Paternal Grandparents, Kenneth and Nellie Clark, Maternal Grandparents, Raymond and Lillian Austin, parents Harvey and Virginia Clark, sister Debbie, Twin sister Rose (Clark) DePino, and nephew Robert Hubbard.

A big thanks is extended to Sandra, Veronia, Jodi, Lindsey, and Ashley that took care of her in her home in Florida.

Ruth will always be remembered by her beaming smile, dry sense of humor, caring heart, and giving nature.

Cremation services have been provided by Daniels Funeral Home and Crematory of Live Oak Florida.

Ruth will reside with her husband until a later date when she will be placed in an crypt at the Civic Center Drive Veterans Cemetery in Augusta Maine.

In lieu of flowers, please consider researching, learning, and giving to a foundation that supports the care of people living with FTD, or to a foundation that is expanding research to work on treatments or a cure of this devastating genetic disease called Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD).

Please take a moment to sign the guestbook and keep the family in your prayers.
