Donald B. Clark, 67, of Trinity, passed away on Thursday, June 1, 2023.  He was born in Philadelphia to the late Delores and Robert D. Clark.  Donald is survived by his loving wife Helen of 47 years; daughters, Kelly Stewart (Gary) and Jennifer Clark (Phil); mother-in-law, Helen Rifkin, wife of the late Charles R. Rifkin; uncle, Hugh “Porky” McArthur, husband to the late Carole McArthur and cousins, Gary McArthur and Gail McArthur-Malinowski.

Don touched so many lives with his larger than-life personality and sense of humor.  He worked as an auto technician and loved restoring classic cars in his free time.  Some of his other hobbies included: watching Nascar and NHRA races, joking around and spending time with his family and friends and teaching his daughters how to build and repair things.
Don was cherished and loved by his family and will be missed tremendously.

I will always remember Don’s “wit”and the many conversations we had, when he visited Beautyland. When ever I had car problems Don would show up with his scanner.All the times he helped me he always refused money! I could never forget the time my car door flew open and I could not shut it.Don fixed it in minutes! Thanks for being such a nice guy Don! R.I.P. 🙏 My condolences to Helen , Jen, & Kelly Be strong, stay strong!!

Sending hugs to you all during this time ❤️
As we call him “Pop Clark”, was a great man and always looked out for us as kids.
I can still picture him driving down the street with one arm out the window and his pony tail flowing in the wind.
So sorry for your loss 🙏🏻🫶🏻

Helen,Jen,Kelly,
You all know that he was like a father to me all of these years since the Parkwood days . He treated me like the son he never had. He taught me everything I know about fixing cars and general life practices.I always had great times with him in whatever we did. I will miss him very much.

Dear Helen, Kelly and Jenn,
My family and I express deepest condolences for your loss. We will always remember him as the caring friend who always helped and advised us when we needed help. Don was a great teacher to me when I had to repair the car. Anyone can buy a good house, but good neighbors are priceless. Rest in Peace Don!

Don was such a great mentor to my brother. His neighborly gestures were never selfish. Take comfort in knowing that he no longer suffers. Thank you for recognizing the potential in others (James). Helen, Kelly, Jen-my heart aches for your loss. May your, Husband, Father and Friend rest in peace.

Dear Helen, Kelly, Jenn and family,
I am so sorry to hear about Don’s passing and the great loss your family is experiencing. Thinking of all of you during this time. I will cherish the many fond memories spending time with all of you and Don. I also remember when Don and my Uncle Dave would “talk cars” and hang out at the body shop. May he rest in peace.
