Meg Clark Obituary

Meg Louise Seney-Britton Clark

Montague , MA - Meg Louise Seney Britton was born on December 11, 1966 and died on November 10, 2023. She was 56 years old. She spent the early years of her life in Ohio and Connecticut. She was a graduate of Avon High School and Bucknell College. Meg had a beautiful soul and looked forward to opportunities to travel and experience the world around her. She had a bright, beautiful, contagious smile and was passionate, compassionate, open, honest, and deeply supportive. She showed up for the people she loved and things she cared about.

Meg had several jobs during her relatively short and beautiful life and she brought her dedication and incredible work ethic to each of those opportunities. Meg truly had a unique way about her and gracefully handled all the situations that came her way by way of her creativity, camaraderie and sense of humor. Meg and her husband Keith Clark, of Montague, Massachusetts, met at WGBY-TV in Springfield. They had just celebrated their 29th wedding anniversary together in September.

In the spring of 2023, just as she and her husband had both lost their jobs, she was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic ALK+ lung cancer, despite the fact that Meg was a lifelong nonsmoker and avid hiker. Meg being Meg, took the disease head on, right up until the end. She fought valiantly with the most wonderful support from the Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Brigham and Women's hospital. Throughout this difficult journey, she did not waste a moment and she made sure her friends and family were in the best place possible; that they knew she loved them; and that she would be with them (us) for the rest of our lives.

Even amidst the unexpected unemployment, the cancer diagnosis, the treatment processes and the daily challenges she was facing, she stayed focused on living. The summer of 2023 was one for the record books as she rallied and "rocked on" with her son and best friends attending concerts including Buddy Guy, Bruce Springsteen, local favorite Johnny Six Gun and more.

Meg leaves behind her husband Keith, her son and rock-n-roll partner Nick, her parents Karen and Skip Britton, her brother Josh Seney, her step-sister Julie Payne Britton, step-brother Tom Britton, half siblings Todd, Matthew, John (Jack) and Allison Seney and many cousins, nieces, nephews and extended family members.

The Clark family wants to acknowledge and express our deepest gratitude to Julie Payne Britton, Gretchen Dobosz, Lynn Candels and Josh Seney for their tireless care, support, dedication, commitment and most importantly, love, as they were by Meg's side from the beginning of this journey right up till her passing.

A celebration of Meg's life will take place in the spring of 2024 as the temperature warms-up and the days get longer. It will be then that our love for Meg can truly be expressed. Glasses will be raised, music will be played, stories will circulate, and smiles will be abundant, as they should be. This is how she would want us to remember her. Thank you Meg, you were a gift to many and we are all the better because of you!

Final arrangements entrusted to the McCarthy Funeral Homes of Greenfield and Turners Falls MA. Remembrances of Meg, maybe directed to her Tribute Wall @ www.mccarthyfuneralhomes.com

What an amazing person. Meg touched so many lives in the very best way. I was fortunate to meet her when she worked at Connecticut Public Television. Her kindness, creativity and infectious smile were always apparent to everyone who met her. Plus, hearing about her family and friends was a wonderful topic of our conversations. Meg was a special person who I was lucky to call my friend and connect with after she left for a new opportunity closer to home. I know how proud she was of Keith and Nick as well as her parents, siblings, aunts, uncles and many cousins. I hope your happy memories will remain forever in your thoughts as you celebrate her life.

Meg and I went to Bucknell together. I just read about her passing in the college´s recent magazine. It is absolutely beautiful. I am so sorry about her passing. We were on the crew team together and had many fun times. I remember Meg´s smile and quiet significant presence well. My best to her family and friends.

What a joy it was to volunteer at Bement school events with Meg. Her warm smile, kindness, generosity, and gentle effectiveness will never be forgotten. She adored her role as a Mom and a wife. My condolences to Nick and Keith.

Distance never stopped me from bragging to people I knew that I had older sister my whole life. Every time I saw her she was a ray of sun shine. The best memory was our brother Matt´s wedding when all the Seney Kids were united together!

I am at a loss for words. My thoughts go out to Keith and Nick. I enjoy our morning coffee and conversation with Terry. Meg you were surrounded by so many friends. You were always there for everyone. You had an infectious smile that lit up the room. Your Christmas cookie platters were something I looked forward to.
