Douglas E. Clark, 71, passed away at his home in Bristol, Maine on March 29, 2023. Born on September 5, 1951 in Clinton, MA, he was the son of Frank and Marjorie (Coolidge) Clark.
The family moved to Amesbury in 1962, and Doug graduated from Amesbury High School in 1969. Shortly after high school he joined the U.S. Air Force and was stationed at Griffiss Air Force Base in Rome, NY, and later transferred to Pease Air Force Base in Newington, NH.
Doug moved to Maine in the early 90’s, where he met and married his wife, Susan (Piascik) Clark. They married at the Pemaquid Lighthouse in September of 2000.
After graduating from high school, Doug learned to play guitar which fostered a life-long love of music. His love for music got him involved in the karaoke circuit in various communities. Doug purchased sound equipment and was dedicated to making sure the events were successful, and he always supported his fellow musicians. He had a huge following from the members of the Midcoast Karaoke Enthusiasts.
Besides his parents, he was predeceased by his wife, Susan.
