Marietta Southern Cremations & Funerals
Marquita Butler Clark, age 77, of Powder Springs, Georgia passed away January 19, 2020. She was a loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, and grandmother. Marquita was originally from Pelly, Texas where she married the late Ronald Clark. Her greatest joy was being a mother to her three boys. She did everything for them, including taking them to practice, games, and anything they were involved in. She chose a career in teaching and as a result retired after 40 years as a Teacher and Administrator for special needs children. In her spare time, she enjoyed crossword puzzles to keep her mind sharp.
Marquita is preceded in death by her Husband Ronald Clark; Father Stedman Butler; Mother Juanita Griffin Butler; and Brothers Wayne, Michael, and Patrick Butler.
She is survived by her Brother Wiley Butler; Sons Steve, Blane, and Lee (Tammy) Clark; and her grandchildren Matthew Clark, Andrew Clark, Alison Clark, Ronald Clark and Mackenzie Jones..
A gathering will be held 10am on February 8, 2020 at Southern Cremations and Funerals at Cheatham Hill, with a memorial service to follow at 11am.








I knew Marquita all through school in Baytown, TX. She was loved by all of her classmates, and was by far the best dancer at our Quack Shack for Teenagers to dance! Loved her!

Marquita…a most wonderful young lady and a dancer beyond comparison.
Steve, Blane and Lee, So very sorry to hear about your beautiful Mom. Our thoughts and prayer are with you. Love, Pam, Bryan and Owen Phillips
Marquita was a joy to hang out with in high school and college. So many fun memories. Slumber parties, summers at Garner State Park, dancing @ Quack Shack, cruising Texas Avenue, Trainers, Ganderettes, her Grandmother’s tuna fish sandwiches, and most of all laughing and having fun. So happy we all had good visits in Baytown the last couple of years. We had a phone visit couple of weeks before her surgery. She loved her family and friends! Martha Barnett Harris
