Obituary

Andrew Clark went to be with his Lord and Savior, surrounded by family and friends at his home in Holdenville, Oklahoma in the early hours of Sunday morning, February 7, 2016. He was 73 years old.

Andy was the son of Amos & Nancy (Tiger) Clark, born on April 12, 1942, in Claremore, Oklahoma. He was brought up in the Holdenville area, where he attended Pleasant Grove Schools and graduated Moss High School with the Class of 1960. He worked for many years as a machinist for Fabsco in Sapulpa, until he became disabled and moved back to Holdenville in 1987.

Andy was a very outgoing and sociable person, and loved the company of other people. He was an avid and dedicated fan of OU Football, and was very actively involved in his own favorite game: Horseshoes. He loved playing with family members just for the fun of it, and in the real game, he was a fierce competitor. He was a member since 1995 of the Ten-n-us-see Horseshoe Club, and placed 2nd in the State Horseshoe Championship Handicap 30-ft. class in 2004, and placed 3rd in the same handicap 30-ft. class in 2005. He was a member of Seminole Nation Eufaula Band and a member of Sand Creek Eufaula Baptist Church. He was a volunteer at Holdenville Community Center until his health finally made him unable to help. He was much loved and will be greatly missed.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Amos & Nancy Clark; brother James 'Jimmy' Clark, and sister Mary Louise Chotkey.

He is survived by four daughters: Christy Wahweah (Samuel) of El Reno, Sandy Clark of Tulsa, Kimberly Briones (Pedro) of Wewoka, and Katherine Brown (Chori Rodriguez) of the home; two brothers, John Clark (Martha) of Lawrence KS, and Charles Maylen of Wewoka; 17 grandchildren: Quinten, Cameron, and Taryn of El Reno, Monica, Amanda, Alyssa, Miriah, Ethan, Lucas, and Jacob of Tulsa, Mason, Kacie, Kaden, and Kenzi of Wewoka, Kaitlyn, Nicolas, and Adriano, of the home; six first cousins: Charles Mitchell, Mickey Queton, Rosetta Pebworth, Penny Kay Dyer, Elsie 'Tootsie' Long, and Frances Tiger; several nieces and nephews, friends and family, including the mother of his daughters, special friend Debbie Clark. His family would like to express grateful appreciation to Faith Hospice of Seminole for their professional and compassionate care.
