Dana Michelle Clark

On Saturday, July 9th, 2022, Dana Michelle (Pope) Clark, loving wife and mother, sister, niece, cousin, and friend passed away. 

Dana was born on June 19, 1967, at Camp Pendleton, California to LaVerna (Johnson) Cormier and Jimmy “Doc” Pope. Dana was raised primarily in Anaheim, CA, also living in Mt. Vernon, OR before moving to Spokane, WA, where she eventually met the love of her life, Jeff “Bear” Clark. Dana and Bear were married on 11/11/11.

Dana was always caring for others. She was known to open her home to those in need, whether it was one of her children's friends or someone she met at work. Her intuition as to knowing the words of advice or support that others needed was uncanny.

Dana was preceded in death by her parents and is survived by her husband Bear, sister Jennifer “Jenny” Pope, and her three children, Madora (Pope) Linker, Micah Phillips, and Josiah Phillips. She also has four grandchildren, the love for which prompted her move to The Dalles, OR: Kaedyn, Amery, Owen, and Emmett.
