Arthur Orell Clark Jr

TUFTONBORO - Arthur Orell Clark, Jr., 62, known to all as Bud Clark, passed away unexpectedly at his home in Center Tuftonboro on July 11, 2018. Born on October 6, 1955, Bud grew up in Foxboro, MA. Bud graduated from Unity College in Unity, ME and later moved to the Lakes Region to make his home. There, he started his own aerial photography/photogrammetry business called Aerodata Digital Mapping, based in Ossipee. A fun, compassionate, and caring friend to so many, Bud was loved by everyone who encountered him. As a talented bass player, Bud was a member of the Carolyn Ramsay Band (including the Carolyn Ramsay Trio/Duo); The Revtones; Joe’s Garage; Martinis at Seven; and The Electricks. Over the years, Bud played with a multitude of wonderful musicians. His greatest passion was music, whether he was playing or listening. Five years ago, he met Sue Morrison, the love of his life. They settled in Center Tuftonboro and enjoyed doing home projects together or just sitting on their deck looking out over the beautiful view. Their home was always welcoming to friends and filled with music. When not at home, they could be found hiking, kayaking or wandering around Portland, ME to hear music. Bud is lovingly survived by his sweetheart Sue Morrison; his son Corey Clark of Contoocook; his daughter Kendra Clark of Exeter; and his sister and brother-in-law Sherry and John Labonte of Newmarket. Bud was predeceased by his parents. A celebration of Bud’s life is planned for this Fall. Condolences may be sent to 18 Black Bear Run, Center Tuftonboro, NH 03816. The Baker-Gagne Funeral Homes and Cremation Service of Wolfeboro and West Ossipee are assisting the family with the arrangements.
