Bobbie "Bob" Clark

When I Am Gone You mustn’t tie yourself to me with tears.

Be happy that we had so many years.

I gave you my love, and you can guess How much you gave me in happiness.

I thank you for the love you each have shown, But now it’s time I traveled alone.

So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must.

Then let your grief be comforted by trust.

It’s only for a while that we must part, So bless the memories within your heart.

To my Dear Husband

I can’t believe I’ve been so blessed to have had a husband such as you.

That stood by me and held my hand And helped me make it through.

It hasn’t always been good times.

We’ve had our share of tears, We’ve faced obstacles together, And overcame our fears.

In good times we laughed And shared such awesome days.

No one knew me like you did We grew closer every day.

I knew that you were made for me, Our time I did adore.

I hope you know deep in my heart I could not love you more.

From Your Loving Wife, Kattie

To The Sweetest Man To the sweetest man who was my inspiration, seeing your bright smile and heart of gold made every day worth living for.

To the sweetest man, every day with you was a surprise for me; there was never a dull moment in my eyes.

To the sweetest man, there’s no one that could ever compare to the love that me and you once shared.

To the sweetest man, I could go on and on. I sure do hate that our time is gone.

Forever in my heart, you will always be the sweetest man to me.

From Your Loving Daughter, Morgan

Brother.. Brother you are so special in a really unique way.

I formed a solid bond with you no matter come what made.

Time goes by so very fast. Where are all those years?

We’ve had a lot of happy times and also shed some tears.

A brother have a special way of making you feel at rest; And having you as a brother makes me know I am blessed.

I still feel very close to you, even though we’re apart You’ll always be my brother, because we’re joined within our hearts.

To our loving Uncle Bob... we remember when we were small, and you were kind and strong. You really didn’t change a bit as life moved along. We knew that you were thoughtful and you stayed the same. You were always helping others, and that never changed.

You were always right there for us In good times and in bad. You laughed with us in happy times and cried with us in sad. You are a special Uncle, as special as can be; more than that you were a friend, a cherished friend to us.

Love You, Big Sis Margaret Ann

We love you Uncle Bob, Your Nieces & Nephews

Remembering

“Bob”

Bobbie “Bob” Clark

was the fourth child born to the late Ulysses and Florence Clark on August 26, 1955, at John Gaston Hospital in Memphis, TN. Bobbie confessed a hope in Christ at an early age at Miller Road Church of Christ in Olive Branch, MS. He later joined the New Philadelphia Baptist Church under the leadership of Rev. Eugene Cochran. He moved his membership, following Rev. Cochran, to Robinhood Lane Baptist Church where he remained until his death.

Bobbie was a graduate of the Class of 1974 at Melrose High School, after which he attended and graduated Carpentry School. He worked as a journeyman carpenter until his health failed.

On September 24, 1982, under God’s blessing, Bobbie was united in Holy Matrimony to Kattie Hyde.

With a positive attitude and a trust in God throughout his illness, Bobbie fought a good fight, finished the race and kept the faith. On Wednesday, January 18, 2017, God sent His Angel to beckon Bobbie home to rest. Bobbie was preceded in death by his parents, Ulysses and Florence Clark, his sister, Freddie Jackson, his brother, Robert Hawkins and his nephew Marlin Clark.

Bobbie leaves to cherish his memories: his loving wife, Kattie Clark; two children, Morgan Clark and Jermel Clark (Calandra); two sisters, Margaret Clark, Helen Johnson (Larry); two brothers, Isaac Clark (Marilyn) and Ulysses Clark (Sandra); three sisters-in-law, Catherine (William), Marilyn (Obaseki), Carolyn (Victor); step sisters and brother; Betsy Clark, Lucy Beatrice Glass (L C), Mary Davis (Robert), Alice Smith, Dianne Phillip and Glen Crutcher and a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives and many devoted friends including Ronnie Moore (his long time barber and friend) and Willie Davis (a dear friend).

“May the work that

I’ve done,

Speak For Me.”
