Scott Michael Clark's Obituary
Clark, Scott Michael
It is with tremendous sadness that the family of Scott announce his passing on April 10, 2019, at the age of 29, after a hard fought battle with Diabetic Gastroparesis. Scott was born on February 1st, 1990, in Bayonne, N.J. Scott was loving and kind, funny and sarcastic, and lived life on his terms. Scott loved family more than anything. He spent most of his life living in Boynton Beach, Fl. For him, this was home. After graduating high school, he pursued his love of working with children as an Aftercare Counselor at Citrus Cove Elementary School, where he once attended. He left briefly to become a Flight Attendant, but returned home, and to Citrus Cove, to continue where he left off. When Scott wasn't at work, he was at East Coast Flames All-Stars, pursuing his other passion, first as a Cheerleader, and then as a Coach. Nothing brought him more joy than this.
He is survived by the Love Of His Life, his partner, Patrick C. Valentino, mother LoriAnn Roderick and stepfather Anthony Roderick, father Robert Clark and stepmother Joann Clark, brothers Jason Clark and Justin Sottilare, sisters Claryssa Griffin, Ashleigh Sottilare and Kassidy Sottilare, grandmothers Edith McGee, Catherine Clark and Priscilla Annicchiarico, step-grandparents Steven and Mary Ellen Roderick, and his "other mom", Shelia Ross. He is preceded in death by his grandfathers Michael J. Annicchiarico and John Clark. He will be remembered by cousins Marc J. Annicchiarico, Alyssa R. Annicchiarico, and Tara N. Morse, and others, by Aunts Michelle Annicchiarico, Phyllis Ann Soto, Karen Clark, and Cathy Duffey and Uncles John "Buddy" Clark, Kevin Clark, Michael Clark, Ray Rosa, Michael Annicchiarico III, and Kyle Duffey, nieces and nephews, along with a tremendous amount of family and friends.
