Clark Howard Mizell

Born in Freeport, Illinois, he was the son of the late John Clyde and Ione Thompson Mizell. Clark was a graduate of Bob Jones University, Class of 1979.

He is survived by his wife, Nancy Taylor Mizell of Greenville, SC; his children, Meredith Mizell of Augusta, GA and Jonathan Mizell of Memphis, TN; his step-children, Michael Freeman (Ashley), Laura Lee Freeman, and Bryan Freeman of Greenville, SC; and his brothers, Brent Mizell (Sharon) of Birmingham, AL, and Bruce Mizell (Lisë) of Greenville, SC.

Clark was a certified public accountant with a career spanning over 45 years. He was a senior tax accountant at Price Waterhouse, a partner with KPMG, and the CFO of TriVergent Corporation. He was the CFO and a partner of First Sun Management Corporation since 2002. His work at First Sun provided joy and fulfillment in his daily life, as well as the friendships and bonds he developed there.

He had a deep connection to nature and raised livestock, including Tunis sheep, on the family farm in Gray Court. Later, he loved spending time outdoors with his wife Nancy hiking, biking, and traveling across North America, Europe, and the Middle East. An avid fan of the TV show "Top Chef," he relished seeking out new culinary experiences on their travels.

A member of First Baptist Church Greenville, Clark was quiet in his faith, but his practice of it resonated throughout his community.

Visitation will be held on Friday, March 7 at 12:30 pm at First Baptist Church Greenville (847 Cleveland St.), with a funeral service to follow at 2 pm. Clark will be laid to rest privately in Woodlawn Memorial Park. A celebration of life will follow the services at the Mizell Family's home.
