Clark C. Hotard

Clark C. Hotard, 78, passed away on March 21st, 2017 in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. Clark, a proud Cajun, was born on March 30th, 1938 in Houma, Louisiana to Russell and Gladys Hotard. Clark married his Southern Belle, Carolyn Canard in 1972 in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. They were happily married for 45 years. Clark loved people and was an active member of The Benevolent Order of The Elks. Well traveled throughout his sales career, he toured most major cities across North America and Europe. Also a General Contractor, Clark left his mark across the landscape as he built homes, banks, restaurants, and various other facilities across the South (including relief work rebuilding Ocean Springs after Hurricane Fredrick in 1979). Recently, Clark completed his last building project. He was most proud of serving as the “Building Superintendent” for the 40,000 square foot Mosaic Church building in Ocean Springs, which he called his “Labor of Love” and “Last Hurrah”. His passion for life, good humor, fellowship, and slightly irreverent ‘Clark-isms’ brought joy and smiles to everyone he met. Clark is survived by his spouse Carolyn; his children Angie (Doug) Molyneaux, Randy (Nikki) Adams, Stephen (Anita) Hotard, and Scott Hotard; and his grandchildren Grey, Amanda, Caitlyn, and Callum. A celebration of his life will be held at the Mosaic Church Chapel that he helped to build at 2016 Bienville Blvd, Ocean Springs on Sunday, March 26th at 3:00 p.m. A visitation will be held immediately beforehand beginning at 2:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial donations be made to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The Ocean Springs Chapel of Bradford-O'Keefe Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements.
