Bob Clark Bolton Jr., age 65, of Heber Springs, Arkansas, passed away on October 6, 2025. He was born on November 12, 1959 in Memphis, Tennessee, to Bob Clark Bolton Sr. and Rosemere Bolton.

Clark was a beloved father, pawpaw, son, and friend. He touched the lives of many with his adventurous and outgoing personality, keen sense of humor, generosity, and infectious spirit. Clark had a great ability to connect with anyone anywhere he went. He quite literally never met a stranger. He possessed an empathetic heart and brilliant mind which was used to help others daily.

Clark graduated from Marked Tree High School and went on to obtain an Associates degree from Arkansas State University in Beebe. He made a career working at Entergy and also farming and growing his family farm, W.J. Bolton Farms. Although he had a successful career at Entergy and farming, it was not until after retirement where he reunited with his true passion in aviation. He truly loved being around anything dealing with an airplane whether that was working on his planes or actually being in the air flying.

Clark wore many hats in his life from lineman, farmer, pilot, and friend, but his favorite hats to wear was the one of Dad and Pawpaw. His kids and grandkids were his greatest achievement. There was nothing he loved more than getting to talk about and brag about his them. Everywhere he went and everyone he met, he made sure to know how proud he was of all of them.

Clark lived his life to the fullest and filled his life with the things he loved. The past few years especially, he has absolutely been the best version of himself. He made sure to have fun and made sure all around him did the same. He loved calling the hogs at every Arkansas game he attended and watched, cooking for his friends and family, playing golf with his girlfriend Barbara, he became a lake enthusiast with his friends, learned to play with every toy imaginable and how to navigate a FaceTime call with Jaxson, and taking every trip he could dream of.

Forever blue skies and tail winds..

Clark was survived by his three children: Kristin Kent, son-in-law Jonathan Kent; Dustin Bolton, daughter-in-law Samantha Bolton; Sarah Stone, son-in-law Hunter Stone. His grandchildren: Jaxson Kent, Tatum Kent, Laura Bolton, Maverick Stone, and Aubrey Stone. His significant other, Barbara Massey. His two siblings: Whit Bolton (Lisa) and Susan Mahaffey (Mike).
