Earline Fishburne was born September 3, 1927, and went to be with the Lord on May 29, 2023. Earline had many names. She was a loving wife, Mother, Grandmother, Aunt, Sister, and Friend who was best known as "Honey." At 95 years of age, Earline lived a long, love-filled life.

Earline contributed to her community by serving as a Sunday School Teacher and volunteering for the Associated Women of Shultz Lewis. Earline also attended the Harvey Church of Christ, where she was a Secretary, and she was a dear member of the Maypole Avenue Church of Christ. The relationships she cultivated over the years lasted for her lifetime and continue to bless her family. "Honey" had many hobbies. She enjoyed spending time with her family, traveling, creating artwork from her puzzles, and playing board games with the intent to win, even against a 4-year-old. Earline was also an avid reader, talented seamstress, and she had a unique gift for knowing what plants needed to flourish. She enjoyed the sunshine, being covered in blankets gifted by loved ones, inviting people into her home, and joking with her favorite son-in-law. Earline loved watching the sunsets with her daughter, inviting her grandchildren to sit and talk with her, eating homemade treats, and watching deer roam in the backyard. Most of all, she enjoyed watching her family grow. Earline was the daughter of Lula Mae Allen-Pugh and Ernest Sylvester Pugh. She was a loving sister to Christine Crawford, Delores Peterson, Ernest Maurice Pugh, and Micheal Pugh.

 April 4, 1956  - October 23, 2023

Angela Marie Stone Clark passed away on Monday, October 23, 2023, after a courageous battle with illness. She was a beloved resident of North Kenwood in Chicago, and had previously lived in Dayton, Ohio; Tampa, Florida; Decatur, Georgia; and Wilmington, Delaware.
 

Angela was born on April 4, 1956, in Dayton, Ohio, to Mary Alene and Edwin Morrow Stone Sr. She attended elementary and high school in Dayton and later pursued nursing at Wright State University.
 

Angela married Michael T. Clark Sr. at a young age, and this year they celebrated 46 years of a loving marriage. They were blessed with one son, Michael Jr.
 

Throughout her life, Angela deeply touched the hearts of many people and left a lasting impact. She was known for her beautiful smile, genuine heart, caring spirit, and motherly advice. Even during her illness, Angela made an effort to get to know and care for those who were caring for her.
 

Angela accepted the Lord as a child and attended McKinley United Methodist Church in Dayton. While in Atlanta, Angela worked for Coca-Cola for 16 years, and she also helped her husband develop a restaurant and successful catering company. 

In Wilmington, Delaware, they attended Bethel AME, where their love for marriage ministry was born. Upon moving to the southside of Chicago, Angela and her family became members of New Life Covenant Church SE. Angela and Michael became servant-leaders of the Marriage Ministry, passionately helping and teaching couples the keys to successful marriages. This ministry continues to thrive at New Life Covenant.
 

Also in Chicago, she worked closely with Michael to grow a real estate investment organization and several other businesses.
 

Angela was preceded in death by her parents, Mary and Edwin Stone Sr. She is survived by her loving husband, Michael Sr.; her son, Michael Jr. (LaDonna); her brothers, Maurice Stone and Edwin Morrow Stone Jr. (Lillian); her nephew, Edwin Marrow Stone III; her beloved granddaughter, Mariah; her special sister-friends, Pamela Sotherland and Oletha Johnson; her godchildren, Lamar, Einnaf, Jamerson, and Myles Austin, Bruce Clark, and Aimee Johnson; as well as numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.

· Brother in-law to Dan, Joanne (angel), Mike, and Shane

· Uncle to Nicole, Jaclynn, Matthew, Zac, Ava, Derek and Lorelei

· Great Uncle to Aubrey, Noah, Shaun, Charlotte and Cullen

· Great life-long friend to many!

In loving memory of Bobby/Uncle Bobby.  It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved brother and uncle.  Bobby left us on November 6th, 2023 leaving behind a legacy of joy, dedication, friendship, and support.

Bobby was a warm presence in our lives, always ready to bring a smile to our faces with a goofy sound effect (“Sca la la la la”), quirky phrase (“Eat shit and bark at the moon!”), or just tell us he loves us, which he did often.  With his tremendous sense of humor and vibrant personality, he made everyone feel included and cherished unconditionally.

More than just a brother and uncle, he was dedicated and hardworking his entire life.  As a young man in his early twenties, he worked to support his family to help put food on the table, turn the heat on for the house, and fix up cars for our mom, Mammy.  All that while taking freezing cold showers before work – can still hear him howling in there trying to hurry!  Working most of his life in residential landscaping, he also managed the land at Ray & Donna’s apple orchard on weekends which was his home away from home! In his later years, he worked at the Ford dealership, making more strong connections there as well.  

One of the more remarkable qualities about Bobby was his heart of gold.  He moved in to help care for our father, Pappy, when he was sick, and he also helped raise his nieces, Ava & Lorelei with his brother Tim for the past 11 years.  He shared many milestone memories, from birthdays to graduations, weddings, and watching his Cubbies finally winning the World Series. Sundays were for hanging together watching the Bears lose, with that anxious leg always shaking. He had a soft spot for his fur-baby Gidget, deemed his service animal due to their sweet bond. 

He was very empathetic and always protective of his loved ones - you knew he always had your back.  He was known as the family Santa Claus and each year, no matter his income, he made sure all the kids had many fun presents to open.  He had a love for the outdoors - 4-wheeling & snowmobiling, and above all, he loved partying out in the woods with his friends every chance he got!  His love for music was infectious!  KISS was his all-time favorite and he gave us all that appreciation for music in our lives.  At any given time, you would find Bobby playing with his young nieces and nephews, usually down on the ground, and later we discovered that at one point, he let each of us girls dress him up with makeup and do his hair & nails!  Bobby lived by his own rules, and that is what helped make him so special.  He touched numerous lives with his kindness and generosity, leaving a permanent mark on the hearts of all who knew him.

Though we mourn his loss, we find peace in the memories we shared and the impact he had on our lives.  In the end, he was surrounded by SO many who love him.  He truly lived his best life!  We invite you to join us in celebrating the life of Bobby.  May his memory be a reminder to cherish the moments we have with our loved ones.  Rest in peace, Bobby – you will be deeply missed, and your love and laughter will forever remain in our hearts. “Look at the head on him!”
