Lorraine Clark, affectionately, known as “Duck”, received her angel wings on April 27, 2020, after a long, difficult, valiant battle with Alzheimer’s Disease. Born on August 15, 1935, Lorraine was a life-long resident of Akron, Ohio.
Lorraine enjoyed spending time with family, friends, and loved ones. She spent her leisure time at the racetrack and casino.
“Duck” will be remembered as a firecracker; she said what she meant, and meant what she said. She didn’t hold any punches, but she did it out of love and because she cared. She followed politics closely and she enjoyed watching all sports. She was a proud member of the Lebron James Grandmothers’ Club.
