Edith Clark 1949-2022

She was born Oct. 20, 1949, in Calcutta, Ohio, a daughter of the late John and Myrtle Seevers Palmer.

Edith was a 1967 graduate of Austintown Fitch High School.

Edith was a member of New Road Church in Austintown where she could be found every Sunday and any day something was needed. She taught Sunday school, sang in the choir and helped to decorate for every holiday. She lived her faith every day and was a true example of a Christian.

Her life was centered on helping others and loving her family. Edith was an outgoing person and could strike up a conversation with anyone. Every year Edith volunteered in the arts and crafts building at the Canfield Fair, where she shared her love of sewing with others. She spent her free time gardening, sewing, cooking and spending time with her family.

She will be lovingly remembered by her husband of 54 years, Randy Clark, whom she married Oct. 7, 1967; daughter, Bonnie (Ryan) Powell, of Canfield; son, Kevin (Jessica) Clark, of Loveland, Colo.; and granddaughter, Allison Powell. Edith will be missed by her sisters: Audra Worley, Alice Lang, Marilyn Rodenhausen and Harriet Chandler, as well as her brother, Jim Palmer.

In addition to her parents, Edith was preceded in death by siblings Donna Paynter and John Palmer.
