Kent P Clark Obituary

Kent P. Clark Sr. Scotia - On July 18, 2026, Kent P. Clark Sr. left this earth to spend eternity with his beloved Nancy Youngs Clark, surrounded by the family who loved him more than words can express.


Born on November 12, 1946, Kent lived a life defined by love, strength, kindness, and an unwavering devotion to those he held dear. He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, and friend whose generosity, quiet wisdom, and selfless heart touched everyone fortunate enough to know him.


After serving in the U.S. Navy, Kent dedicated many years of service as a lineman with National Grid, where he earned the respect of his coworkers through his tireless work ethic, skill, and integrity. Outside of work, he found joy in bowling, doing "his puzzles," feeding the birds, and building, fixing, or creating just about anything. If something was broken, Kent could fix it. If someone needed help, he was there without hesitation. Whether he was spending time with family, sharing stories, lending a hand, or making others laugh, he had a remarkable gift for making people feel loved and valued.


Kent is survived by his sons, Kent (Becky) Clark Jr. and Kurt (Kelli) Clark; his grandchildren, Andrew (Samantha) Potter and Megan Clark; his grandchildren by love, Collin and Dylan McPhail; his treasured great-granddaughter, his "Peanut," Sylvie Potter; his siblings, Joan (Ted) Mendelson, Mark (Kathy) Clark, James Clark, Patty (Blaine) Smith, and Tim (Debbie) Clark; along with many extended family members and dear friends who will miss him deeply.


He was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Nancy Youngs Clark; his parents, Warren and Marion Clark; and his sister, Cathy Higgins.


Although our hearts are broken, we find comfort in the countless memories Kent leaves behind. His strength, compassion, steady presence, and unconditional love will continue to guide and inspire those who knew him. His legacy lives on in the family he cherished and the lives he touched through his kindness and generosity.


Family and friends are invited to celebrate Kent's life at Bekkering-Ellis Funeral Home on Monday July 27th at 9:00 a.m., with processional to follow at Saratoga National Cemetery.


Forever in our hearts, always in our memories.
