ROULETTE, PA—Margaret C. Clark, 90, a lifelong resident of Roulette, passed away on Friday, June 12, 2026, in Sweden Valley Manor, Coudersport, after a long illness.

Born on Sunday, August 11, 1935, in Sinnemahoning, she was a daughter of George F. and Helen Mae Copenhaver Caldwell.  On September 2, 1961, in Roulette in Riverside Methodist Church, she married Donald M. Clark, who passed away on March 9, 2006.

Margaret was a graduate of Emporium High School.  She loved working in the secretarial field, which included typing and bookkeeping.  She had been employed at the former Potter County Hospital, North Penn Gas, and the former Charles Cole Memorial Hospital.  She was also employed by Attorney John Duvall in Coudersport for over 27 years.  She was then employed by Attorney Daniel Glassmire and was also employed by Four Seasons Realty in Coudersport, from where she retired at the age of 70.

Margaret was a member of Riverside Methodist Church in Roulette where she sang in the choir. She spent 1000’s of hours volunteering at the former Charles Cole Memorial Hospital in Coudersport, assisting her daughter, Diane, who was the hospital hairdresser, doing hair on Long Term Care.  She loved to travel to North Carolina to her grandson’s home, where she very much loved seeing her great-grand dogs, Bourbon and Odin.  Her last trip was in October at the age of 90. She never missed an opportunity to see her grandsons.  She adored her grand dog—Odie. Margaret also volunteered for the American Cancer Society collecting donations.  She loved to read Amish books.  Her greatest love was her family, especially her children and grandchildren.

Clark and Jesse T. Mason; two sisters, Frances (Tom) Troy and Alva Buckingham, both of Coudersport; and several nieces, nephews, grandnieces, and grandnephews.
