Barbara R. Clark

December 15, 2020

We are sad to announce our beloved daughter, sister, wife, and dear friend, Barbara R. Clark, 81, passed away after a struggle with dementia. Barbara was born in Detroit, Michigan to parents Ethel and Dick Richter. She graduated from Radford College and became first a teacher for Danville City Schools and later Pittsylvania County Schools as well. On July 3rd, 1971 Barbara married her wonderful Samuel (Sam) Clark who died in 1990. “Barb” is survived by brother Thomas (Tom) Richter, sister Dorothy (Duff) Duran, cousins, nieces, and nephews, and dear friends and neighbors. We are especially grateful for the care Barbara received at Bright Leaf Place and from Mountain Valley Hospice. A memorial service for Barbara is being planned for the end of June 2021 when we hope we will be allowed to gather together once again, to celebrate her life well-lived. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to Bright Leaf Place at 432 Hermitage Dr, Danville, VA 24541, Mountain Valley Hospice at 730 E Church St, St #13, Martinsville, VA 24112 or to Christ Episcopal Church Memorial Fund at 3245 Franklin Turnpike, Danville, VA 24540. Wrenn-Yeatts North Main Chapel is respectfully serving the Clark family.
