NORRISTOWN, PA: Vivian Mary Clark (nee Demers) moved on to her next life January 8, 2016, peacefully with dignity and grace at Regina Nursing Center in Norristown, Pennsylvania, surrounded in love and light by family and friends at the age of 70. Born on June 7, 1945 she was raised in Brimfield, Massachusetts where she was the beloved daughter of Ernest and Juliette (nee Morin) Demers. A resident of Southwick, Massachusetts for over 40 years she relished being a mom more than anything. She loved cuddles with her children, granddaughter and granddogs as well as the joyous times she spent with her family. She enjoyed growing up on a farm, her many loving friends, daily long walks, and her “Ya Ya’s.” A tremendous homemaker, cook and baker, artist, reader, and avid exerciser, she devoted herself to her family for the entirety of her children’s childhood years and worked as an office manager in various organizations later when they were grown. She was pre-deceased by her brother, Roland Demers of Brimfield, Massachusetts and survived by her daughter Cindy Clark and grandaughter Ali of Derry, New Hampshire, daughter Colleen Clark and “third daughter” Merry Lubking of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, her husband Raymond Clark of Palmer, Massachusetts, brothers, Gene Demers of Belchertown, Massachusetts and Ronald Demers and his wife, Joyce of Chicopee, Massachusetts, Roland’s wife, Joan Demers of Brimfield, Massachusetts, as well as many nieces, nephews and cousins. The family wishes to express their greatest appreciation and gratitude to the staff at Regina Nursing Center and Kym at hospice. Their kindness and support will never be forgotten. Donations in lieu of flowers can be made to the Alzheimer’s Association. A Mass celebrating her life will be held at St. Thomas Church in Palmer, MA on Thursday, January 14 at 10:00 AM.
