Obituary

Vassalboro- On Thursday, May 9, 2024, Roger Adam Russell Clark of Vassalboro, Maine went home to be with the Lord. Rog, "Roggi" to his family, was just 43 years old when he died from a brain bleed and stroke. Rog was born on February 17, 1981, in Fort Belvoir, Virginia to Roger and Rhonda Russell Clark. His father was in the Army so Rog spent the early years of his life moving to different states, and even the country of Germany. Once his family settled down, he lived in Windsor, Maine where he attended school and went on to graduate from Erskine Academy in 1999. Rog loved his family and went on many family camping trips with them. Lots of good memories were made on these trips, especially Dead River camping trips, that his family will remember always. Every fall, he would enjoy going to the corn maze, pumpkin patch, and apple orchard at Treworgy Family Orchards with his family. He always enjoyed a good BBQ, oftentimes the man behind the grills he also loved His Mother's Lasagna for His Birthday dinner every year. He had a passion for video and computer games and would often be found playing one with his friends and family. There were many holidays spent with everyone sitting around with their own computers playing games together. Much like the rest of his family, he had an interest in playing card games and board games. There were many Sundays with the whole family sitting around the table laughing and having a good time playing games together. These are the times and memories his family will always cherish. Rog leaves behind many loved ones; both of his parents, Roger and Rhonda (Russell) Clark; His older sister, Melissa (Clark) Stackhouse and her husband Keith; His younger sister, Anitta (Clark) Dunlap and her husband Timothy, as well as their children: Declan, Jonah, and Claire; Beloved friends, Zach Parks, Erika Clough, Tyler Mallozzi, and Brad Forrest. He also leaves behind Aunts, Uncles, many cousins, and good friends. They will all miss him very much. He moves on to be with his grandfather and grandmother Robert and Reta (Bailey) Russell; His grandfather and grandmother Walter and Fern (Collins) Clark; and an aunt Regina (Russell) Jewett and uncle Leo "Lee" Clark. He also moves on to meet nieces and nephews that never made it earth side. We are positive they are all welcoming him with open arms. Rog's Graveside Service will be at Pine Grove Cemetery in Dresden on Wednesday May 15, 2024, at 2pm. There will be a celebration of life at his aunt Raelene Fitzpatrick's house in Dresden following the service. Arrangements and guidance are entrusted with Staples Funeral Home and Cremation Care, 53 Brunswick Avenue, Gardiner, Maine. Condolences, memories, and photos may be shared with the family on the obituary page of the Staples Funeral Home website, www.staplesfuneralhome.com
