2. | Frank Duane Clark (1.Sidney1) was born on 30 Mar 1926 in Mixon, Cherokee County, Texas; died on 20 Apr 2011 in Pecos City, Reeves County, Texas. Notes:
Odessa (Texas) American newspaper
ODESSA Frank Duane Clark, 85, a farmer, carpenter, and retired mechanic passed away on Wednesday, April 20, 2011 at the Hospice House of Odessa surrounded by his loving family and friends.
He was born March 30, 1926 in Mixon, Texas to Olan Sydney Clark and Annie Mae Klements. After graduating high school in Fort Hancock, TX, he joined the Navy. He served in the Pacific during World War II. After returning from the navy, he made his home in Fort Hancock, TX before moving to Pecos, TX, where he helped raise a family of six kids. From a very early age, he learned the value of hard work. At the tender age of six, he harvested asparagus growing along a river bank in Ft Hancock and sold it to the public, along with selling milk from the family's dairy farm to help make ends meet. Among the many hobbies our dad had, he was a fanatic about fishing as his children will testify to. They spent nearly every weekend of their childhood on a river bank at one of his many favorite fishing spots. He was also a terrific gardener growing everything from tomatoes to watermelons. He loved to hunt for arrowheads and was very proud of his extensive arrowhead collection.
Each child, grandchild and great-grandchild was very special to him. Our dad was always joking around and making family and friends laugh, even up to the very last moments of his life. He was very special to all his children and grandchildren, being the most loving and patient Dad, Pa Pa and Great Pa Pa. He will be sorely missed by all that knew him. He was preceded in death by one daughter: Deborah Lynn Clark; one sister: June Walls; and two grandsons: Jayd Anthony Lee and Michael Duane Blackstock.
Those left to cherish his memory are his wife of nearly 50 years: Frances Clark of Pecos; six children: Neidra Zeephat of Pearce, AZ, Mike Blackstock of Pecos, TX, Kay Lee and husband Roger of Odessa, Pam Johnson of Amarillo, Becky Clark of Midland, and Tracy Willis and husband Brandon of Odessa; ten grandchildren; five great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews.
Memorial services will be at 11 a.m. on Saturday, April 23, 2011, at Pecos Funeral Home in Pecos, officiated by Roger Lee.
Arrangements are entrusted to Pecos Funeral Home of Pecos and Acres West Funeral Chapel of Odessa.
We would like to thank his friends at Deerings Nursing Home for their friendship and kindness shown to him. Also, a very special thank you to the wonderful staff at Hospice House of Odessa. We all look forward to the time when as Rev. 21:4 says: "He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, death will be no more, neither will there be mourning nor outcry nor pain, for the former things have passed away."
Rest in peace, Daddy. We all love you very much.
