Bruce Clark Obituary

Bruce Clark
Bruce Merl Clark, 59, of Coleman, passed away July 13th, 2022, at Midland Hospital after a brief illness. He was born May 4th, 1963, in Midland, MI to the late Nelson and Donna (Barber) Clark. He is survived by his wife Dawn, sons Andy (Megan) and Branden (Kait), and grandchildren, Mason, Maren and Marek Clark and Eloise Clark. He is survived by his two brothers Gary (Connie) and Mark (Laurie) and a sister Leane (Aaron) Strouse and nieces and nephews. Bruce is preceded in death by his parents.
Bruce grew up in Coleman and after high school held several jobs in and around Coleman. He married Dawn in 1984 and they settled at the property he grew up on. He was extremely proud of the fact that his boys and grandchildren got to hunt on the same property as Bruce's grandfather.
He was proud of his various community service activities over the years, including serving as an EMT, a volunteer firefighter, Midland County Road Commission, and the Warren Township Board for sixteen years. He loved to garden, he loved his dog, Dolly, and he loved his family.
Cremation has taken place; a celebration of life service is planned on Friday, July 22nd at 11 AM at the Faith United Methodist Church at 416 N Second St. in Coleman. The family will receive visitors from 10 AM until the time of service. Meal at Faith United Methodist to follow the service. Pastor Alan Rydman will officiate.

Having known Bruce all of my life, words cannot suffice to express what a loss is felt. The last time we talked was at my farm in Coleman and he was as happy and optimistic as always. He was kind enough to call and stay in touch after we left the area, and we appreciated this very much. Our deepest sympathies and condolences to the Clark family. Godspeed, Bruce, as you enter the next phase of existence!

To the family of Bruce, I am sorry for your loss. I knew Bruce from the days he worked on the Coleman station EMS unit. He was young, energetic and really loved helping people and contributing to his community.
