Clark William Nanney, Jr. was born Tuesday, January 12, 1937, in Black Mountain, North Carolina, and died Friday, January 26, 2024, in Spring Hill, Florida.
Dad loved large and showed it especially in the care he took of his family. He worked hard for them and excelled at Ford Motor Company for over 30 years. 2024 is the 60th year of marriage for Clark and the love of his life, Betty (Ramey).
One of Dad’s favorite things to do was woodworking. He had the gift of making beautiful useful items which he often gave away. His most recent service has been with Toy Makers where he created wooden toys for sick and needy children. Throughout the years he could often be found in his shop in Michigan and later in Florida working on a project.
He will be reunited with his parents, Annie Mae and Clark Nanney, his sister Yvonne McConnell and brother Maurice Nanney as he returns home. He is survived by his wife Betty, his children, Rodney (Nanci) Nanney, Jeff (Christopher) Nanney and David (Jennifer) Nanney and his grandchildren, Nathan, Elana, and Eilah. He is also survived by his sister, Myra Long, and his brother Maurice’s wife, Janette Nanney.
