Lamar Bryshun Clark

Mr. Lamar Bryshun Clark was gifted to this world on February 21, 1970 in Gastonia, NC. That precious gift was received back to his heavenly Father on Sunday June 30 , 2024 at Carolinas Medical Center Main in Charlotte NC. He was the loving son of the late Ruby Allison Fewell Clark and Mr. Dock D. Dillard both of whom he loved dearly. Lamar was baptized at a young age and joined Mt. Pleasant Missionary Baptist Church in Belmont where he was previously active in the youth choir, Sunday school, missionary group and the usher board. Lamar loved watching gospel televangelism programming on TV, listening to gospel music, gospel choirs and reading about the end times in the book of Revelations. He “preached” his first and only sermon at the age of 9 and it was entitled “The Beast”. It was about a 60 second long sermon that was inspired by him hearing about “The Beast” in Revelations on T.V. and he warned us it was coming to get us if we didn’t do thus saith Lamar Clark. From that moment on he was affectionately called “Reverend”. We saw what we thought was “The Calling” in his life and tried to convince him that he was to become a preacher but God had other plans. Mr. Clark graduated from South Point High School in Belmont, NC Class of 89 where he enjoyed playing the Tuba in the band. He attended Gaston College studying Electronics Technology and he also attended Livingstone College. Upon matriculating on the campus of Livingstone College Lamar was again persuaded to attend Hood Theological Seminary on the campus of Livingstone College and with great determination he was not interested in any of that. He wasn’t interested in obtaining a degree in Theology, becoming an ordained Minister, Reverend or Preacher instead He Became one of the Best Sermons and message from GOD that you could ever see, hear or experience if you ever came within his presence. His sweet, strong, warm, upbeat, bubbly, humble personality and spirit touched all that got to know him. Lamar spent a lifetime serving others in his work career as a residential group home support specialist, medical device and pharmacy delivery driver and his most recent employment as an airport shuttle bus driver with Charlotte Douglas International Airport in Charlotte NC. Lamar had a passion for people, family, animals, enjoying nature, watching NFL football, attending South Point High School Football games, watching his beloved Carolina Tarheels, playing checkers especially with his father, all things electronic, reading the newspapers, deciphering the meaning of numbers, getting to know all cultures, races and ethnic groups, cooking, listening to jazz, classical, r&b, 70’s music and he enjoyed being his authentic, unique, loving and giving self-most of all.

Dillard, four sisters, Karen Colbert (Ervain), Phyllis Clark, Teresa Monroe(Rufus), Patricia Reid, Octavia Erwin, brothers, Calvin Clark (Uche), Donnie Fewell (Rhonda) Percell Fewell, Charles Fewell (Christine), Dock Edwin Dillard, Joseph Dillard.
