Brian Melvin Clark, 80, of Mendon
1945 - 2026

Born in Milford on September 21, 1945, Brian was the son of the late John G. and Barbara M. (Fenton) Clark. He was raised in Medway, where he lived for many years before moving to Mendon 12 years ago.

Brian was a graduate of Medway High School and spent much of his professional life working as a technician in the automotive industry. Later, he combined his technical skills with his love of the outdoors by working at several marinas in Maine.

A proud patriot, Brian served in the United States Navy during the Vietnam War, spending much of his service aboard the USS Franklin D. Roosevelt. He attained the rank of E-3 and remained proud of his military service throughout his life.

Brian was also an Eagle Scout, reflecting a lifelong appreciation for the outdoors and adventure. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, and snowmobiling, hobbies that brought him great happiness and many memorable experiences with family and friends.

In addition to his wife Barbara, he is survived by his brother, Gordon Clark of Bellingham.

He was predeceased by his siblings, Susan Eastman and John Clark Jr.

Brian will be remembered for his quiet strength, dedication to his family, love of the outdoors, and service to his country.

A celebration of Brian’s life will be held at a later date. Details will be announced by the family.

In lieu of flowers, donations in Brian’s memory may be made to the Disabled Veterans National Foundation (P.O. Box 2005, Milford, NH 03055-2000).

Arrangements are under the care of the Ginley Crowley Funeral Home.

Brian’s memory will live on through the family and friends who loved him and through the many lives he touched over the years.
