Born October 16, 1961, Clark was the son of the late Clarence J. and Dorothy Combs Brown of Hico. He was employed as a raft guide/equipment manager at Mountain River Tours in Hico for 30 years before becoming disabled.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by a brother, David Brown, and by his beloved dogs Sapphire and Griz. His survivors include a sister, Karen Paul and husband Wallace, of Mount Lookout, niece Shea Paul of Charleston, who was more like a sister than a niece, long-time companion Faye Smith of Edmond, stepdaughter Heather Sneed and husband Joey of Oak Hill, and son Joseph Jeffries and wife Angela of Bunker Hill, WV; grandchildren Isabelle, Lucas, and Savannah Sneed and Levi Jeffries; and several cousins. Also surviving Clark Bar are his special friends Jeremy Hatcher of Hico, David Fitzwater of Lambertville, MI, and Andy Murphy of Afton, TN.
Clark loved the earth – the mountains, the rivers and the animals. His idea of taking a vacation was spending a day at the river. He was interested in sports only if the WV Mountaineers were playing! He often referred to himself as a simple man. And, indeed he was always smiling and jolly, a likeable, peaceful person, who had no enemies and was a friend to many. Now he rests in peace with the hope of one day living again on a paradise earth.
