Anne T. (Lombard) Clark, age 85, of Norton, passed away peacefully on Sunday, January 3, 2021 at the Sturdy Memorial Hospital in Attleboro. She was the beloved wife of the late Retired Massachusetts State Police Lieutenant Merle L. Clark, Jr., to whom she was wed for twenty-one years at the time of his death on November 19, 1988.

Born in Ipswich, MA on February 22, 1935, she was a loving daughter of the late J. Alcide and Mary (Martel) Lombard.

Anne’s family always came first. She was especially proud of her son and cherished the times spent with her grandchildren and attending their sporting events. She was a member of the Framingham State College Alumni Club and always looked forward to get-togethers with former classmates and water aerobics with area friends at the Attleboro YMCA. For over forty years, Anne treasured the summers spent and memories created at her family’s home in Falmouth, where she also delighted in shell fishing and quahogging.

She is survived by her devoted son Norton Police Chief Brian M. Clark and his wife Gale. She was the beloved grandmother of Jenna E. Clark, Alex B. Clark, Maxwell Newman and Leah Newman.
