We created a GatheringUs memorial to celebrate the life of Melissa Beth Clark. Please share your memories of her and sign the virtual guest book. Collecting your stories and memories here will offer the Clark family great comfort. Thank you for contributing to this lasting memorial.
Melissa was many things. She was beautiful. She was stubborn. She was passionate. She was loud. She was loving. She was smart, brave, outspoken, and HILARIOUS! Words will never adequately express how funny she was once she really got going. She was smart, brave, passionate, outspoken, loving, and HILARIOUS! She loved her friends and family more than anything in the world, and she would have gladly given her life for them. Melissa was the kind of friend you always wanted on your side. She was someone you were lucky to know.
In recent years, Melissa has dealt with a seemingly insurmountable amount of health issues. Melissa was a fighter, though, and she never gave up on herself or her future. The adversity she faced in her life motivated her to help others overcome their own obstacles. Melissa once said, "It's been some really trying times but I'm glad I went through it, because I have an amazing story to help others. It has made me such a strong and resilient woman."
On September 26th, 2020, Melissa died suddenly and unexpectedly in her home. She leaves behind a twelve-year-old daughter, Madison. Melissa loved Madison more than anything else in the world. She was so proud of the beautiful young woman that Madison was becoming. For Madison, more than anybody, this is an absolutely devastating loss.
Right now, Melissa's family is grappling with the unimaginable burden of laying to rest their sister, daughter, and mother. As if the grief and shock weren't enough to cope with, the Clark family now finds itself being relentlessly pummeled by an avalanche of funeral expenses they had no way to prepare for, and they desperately need our help.
