Regina A. "Ginny" Clark

Ginny was born in Philadelphia to the late Agustus and Agnes McCann Hatgimisios.  She passed away Friday in Thomas Jefferson University Hospital after a valiant battle with heart disease.   

This appeared in a Fishtown Action posting.  " Ginny was small in stature but huge in heart.  She was involved in the beginning years of Fishtown Neighbors Association and a founding member of Fishtown Action.  She was also on the board and served as President of the Ladies Auxiliary of the Elm Tree Post 88, American Legion.  Ginny loved Fishtown and her Fishtown kids.  She helped organize Easter Egg Hunts, Halloween Parties, Ice Cream Sundae Parties and Christmas Parties. She loved serving pizza and snacks at the Great Fishtown Spelling Bee and March Academic Madness. She never said no- she always asked " What do you want me to do ?". She loved her family and her neighborhood tremendously. We were lucky to have Ginny.  She made us laugh, she fought for us, she worked along side of us and never gave up.  But most importantly she was a tremendous friend. Rest in peace dear Ginny and thank you for all you did for us, the Veterans and our children. We love you "   Ginny also worked at Holy Name School for many  years and most recently at the daycare at York and Gaul Sts.

She is the widow of the late Francis Clark.  Beloved mother of Charles J. Hall Jr. ( Catherine ), Dolores M. Hall-Berry and Francis C. Hall ( Ann ).  Dear sister of Marita Clark, Tine Heister and the late Harry Gibson and Agnes Adams..She will be sadly missed by her many grandchildren , great grandchildren, nieces and nephews.  

Her viewing will begin Thursday at 7 PM, followed by her Service of Christian Burial at 8:30 PM, in the McELVARR FUNERAL HOME, 1415-17 East Susquehanna Avenue, Fishtown.  Due to the current health crisis, guests will be required to wear masks and observe strict social distancing, both inside and outside the funeral home.  Interment in Palmer Cemetery will be at a later date.
