<div itemprop="description">Former Cary, Maine resident George &ldquo;Aubrey&rdquo; Clark peacefully passed at 90<br /><br />on January 8, 2016, in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. Preceded in death by his<br /><br />daughter Beverly and brother Sterling, Aubrey is survived by Noreen, wife<br /><br />of 64 years, four children (Wanda, Wendell, Barbara and Brenda), and 16<br /><br />grandchildren, as well as siblings Duane and Carolyn.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Born on October 5, 1925 in Michigan, United States of America, Aubrey was<br /><br />raised along the St. John River and served in the Royal Canadian Air Force<br /><br />during World War II as a bombing instructor. He later attended and<br /><br />graduated from New Brunswick Bible Institute, meeting Noreen Doris Paul who<br /><br />became his bride. In addition to bible school, his preparation for<br /><br />missionary work included medical missionary training. In 1952, Aubrey and<br /><br />Noreen traveled to Brazil by steamer where they completed language training<br /><br />before living in the interior of Brazil as frontier missionaries. Multiple<br /><br />health challenges forced his return to the United States, along with a<br /><br />family now including five children.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />After graduating with a bachelor&rsquo;s degree from Ricker College in Houlton,<br /><br />Maine, Aubrey taught on Beal&rsquo;s Island and in Ludlow, Maine. However, his<br /><br />continued love for Brazil led to his return in 1970 to missionary service<br /><br />as professor and director at a seminary in Fortaleza, Brazil.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />In 1987, Aubrey and Noreen retired to their bungalow in Cary, Maine, where<br /><br />he served as Sunday School teacher and deacon at Cary Baptist Church. He<br /><br />enjoyed visiting and helping people, working in his garden and yard, being<br /><br />with his wife Noreen and reading about alternative healing.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />In 2012, he and Noreen moved to Kingston, Ontario, where he continued going<br /><br />on walks and attending the local senior center.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Celebrations for Aubrey&rsquo;s life include a memorial service on January 16 at 11:00 a.m. at Robert Reid Funeral Home, in Kingston, Ontario followed by a lunch and reception at Bethel Church and a memorial service in Cary, Maine during the summer 2016.<br /><br /><br /><br />Memorial donations by cheque can be made to Avant Mission (https://avantministries.org/) or to South Frontenac Community Services (www.sfcsc.ca). <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div>
