It is with both sadness and celebration that we announce the passing of Clark Bernard Kitchell Jr., who left this world on February 22, 2025, at the age of 76. His loving wife of 55 years is Dianne Kitchell.

Born on March 15, 1948, in Paterson, NJ, he was the son of the late Clark, Sr and Leonia Kitchell.  Clark embraced life with a warm spirit and unwavering dedication to his community. Living in Lake Ariel, PA, he treasured the close-knit bonds formed within Wallenpaupack Lake Estates, contributing selflessly to the area he called home.

As a devoted laborer in the construction industry, Clark brought his strong work ethic and can-do attitude to every project, leaving a lasting impact on the communities he served. Beyond his professional life, he was a proud volunteer fireman with the Lakeville Volunteer Fire Company. His bravery and commitment to helping others made him a cherished figure in the community.

Clark Bernard Kitchell Jr. will be remembered not just for his contributions to his profession and community, but for his kindness, humor, and the light he brought into the lives of those around him. May his legacy inspire us all to serve our communities with the same passion and dedication he exemplified throughout his life.

Clark is survived by his beloved spouse, Dianne Kitchell, who will always carry his memory in her heart. Their love and partnership were a testament to the beauty of companionship, and Dianne’s grief is shared by all who knew them as a couple.

Also surviving are his daughter Stephanie Krawczuk and her husband Nick of Wayne, NJ; a brother Laurence Kitchell of Mt. Pocono; grandchildren Nicholas Krawczuk and his wife Jenny, Michael Krawczuk, and Alexander Krawczuk; 2 nephews; 3 nieces, 1 great nephew

He was preceded in death by his sisters Cathie Pfuhl and Lauralee Kitchell; a nephew Larry Lee Kitchell
