Sharon Anne Clark

June 15, 1989 – November 20, 2022

CLARK – Sharon Anne, 33, late of Grafton, NH, was found deceased in her home on Nov. 20, 2022. Sharon was the youngest daughter of Robert and Jane Clark of Front Royal, VA. Born in Winfield, IL on June 15, 1989, she is survived by her parents Robert and Jane, brothers Daniel and James, sisters Elizabeth and Becky, niece Jade, other relatives, and many friends.

Sharon loved the Lord and liberty, and desired that all would understand the gospel. She welcomed debate and enjoyed sharing her insights concerning sustainable living, political philosophy, and theology. She was an avid blogger and hard worker. She pursued adventure and challenges.

Sharon was homeschooled through high school, taught elective classes for homeschoolers, and led a worship team of signers at church. She received her black belt in karate from Front Royal Karate Club. She acquired her certification in ASL (American Sign Language) from NOVA, then studied engineering at Chattanooga State Community College in Tennessee before traveling to Montreal, Canada to study the French language. She was conversant in French and wrote many articles in both English and French. Two years ago she moved to New Hampshire to join the Free State Project, and worked at MTD Building Contractors in Canaan, NH.

Sharon volunteered with Habitat For Humanity, both in the United States and in Canada, and sought to help the poor and the homeless whenever she could. She will be greatly missed.

A memorial will be held on Sunday, January 1, 2023 at 1 p.m. at the Mill Brook Christian Fellowship in Grafton, NH.

My Thoughts

As I’ve done before with the Death of Elisa Lam I am going to attempt to understand another mysterious, and horrific tragedy.

This time it’s a dear friend of mine, Sharon Clark. First, I would like to share my personal message…

Forwarded from t.me/fspfc/151

Today we celebrate the life of Sharon Clark.
Sharon was an incredible person, and has had an enormous positive influence on the people that were graced with her kindness, selflessness, and dedication.

As an activist in New Hampshire, and Grafton specifically, she had such a tremendous impact on bringing the community together. The legacy that she has left behind will last forever.

I am grateful to have known her as long as I did. We met in Grafton last year, and she quickly became one of my favorite people in New Hampshire.
Her motivation and passion were extremely admirable, and I believe she may be the most wholesome person I’ve ever met.

I had great aspirations of working together with her, and dreaming of the incredible things we would accomplish.
I am very torn by her passing. I am sure she’s in the best place possible, and I know her angelic presence will continue to guide me through many of our shared visions.

Sharon was passionately driving the Free Grafton project – Organizing members of the town, integrating locals into the community, and holding monthly meetings and potlucks.

She was also diligently working on proposing changes to the Town of Grafton regulations, most of which would benefit those living in tiny houses and increase freedom overall.

Thank you for everything you have done. May you rest in peace knowing that your time on earth will never be forgotten.

Memorial

Sharon’s Memorial service was today at Mill Brook Christian Fellowship in Grafton, NH.

I learned there, for the first time, that Sharon died of a gunshot wound. I was speechless as I met her Mother Jane, and Sister Becky for the first time… while I also learned that my friends death was not accidental (as I had come to believe). Jane was explaining to a man named Bill as I walked in, and both agreed that the official story did not make sense.

Sharon’s mother is confident though that God will be sure that Sharon’s wishes of Truth, Liberty, and Justice will be served.

Today I slept, took a long hot shower, stuffed myself silly with a $3 dinner. It has been most productive and enjoyable.
I seriously have done nothing in San Diego that is out of the my normal routine at home.
I DO WHAT I WANT
After all, I like my home comforts and every now and then I do something entirely impulsive and reckless like tell a guy I just met I like him…….
I do like people watching at the hostel.

Now that I’m rested and well, starting tomorrow I should venture outside more.
1. Seaworld
2. The Zoo
3. Museum because it’s free!!!!
4. Whale watching at Coronado/Point Loma ?

I got lost in the airport and missed my connecting flight
UGHH. Sleepover at the airport again.
Oh well. It could be worse.

Other info and resources:

Facts still need checking

  • Katie Orphan owner of “THE LAST BOOKSTORE” recalls talking to Elisa on Jan 31st in her book store
    • Bought gifts to take home
  • What about invisibility cloak?
  • Missing Facebook and Twitter
  • Need records of fire alarm going off or dispatch on that date.
  • Was known for posting pictures from rooftops to facebook
  •  Contacted family every day until Feb 1
  • Was originally checked in to 5th floor, but moved to 4th floor after roommates complained about behavior
  • Hostel had shared bathrooms, unsure about shared rooms.
  • Did Elisa see the film Dark Water, or have any history with it

My Theory:

  • It was her last day on vacation before going home.
    • Either she was being adventurous and enjoying the last night.
    • or she was locked out of her room
  • Could not get in room.
    • Check out would have been Jan 31, 2013 – around 11am
    • Elevator video from Feb 1, 2013 12:22am
    • May have been looking for safe spot to stay/sleep and ventured to the roof
    • Could be debunked if shared room guests would let her in?
  • Tried 15th floor roof access door before getting in elevator.
    • Most speculation is that she was on the 14th floor
    • Either looking to hide for the night for a place to sleep
      • or being adventurous
    • Possibly set off alarm and was hiding from security, or expecting security.
      • May have been accidental by opening alarmed roof door
    • If alarm was going off in elevator footage
      • Could explain why doors wouldn’t close
      • Maybe elevator resumed operation after alarm was reset
      • Explains behavior
        • Calm when first entering elevator
        • Panics when doors don’t shut
        • When reentering after standing in hall, hands appear to be covering ears.
  • No glasses on
    • Bent to see buttons when first entering elevator
    •  Pushed hold button or open door button instead of floor so elevator didn’t close.
  • Stayed open while talking or looking in the mirror
    • may have held button on outside of door.
    • Unclear what she is doing outside of elevator
    • Could have been talking to security about alarm.
  • Climbed fire escape ladder to rooftop
    • May have been common for her
    • However it would have been dark and no glasses
  • Climbed to highest platform above water tanks on roof, up another ladder
    • Likely just adventurous
  • Could have fallen or jumped in to water tank
    • If jumped, obviously didn’t foresee the lack of a way out.
    • May not have known there was water in there
      • It’s dark, and it was a hatch… possibly open
    • May have stripped before or after falling in
      • after to aide in staying afloat
      • unsure if clothes were found inside tank

Conclusion

It was one YouTube comment that led me in the direction of the Fire alarm. I couldn’t find any evidence to back this up, but her elevator actions could be better explained if she had just done something wrong.
She didn’t appear to be scared for her life as much as she appeared to fear being in trouble.
I don’t know the circumstances that led her to be in the tank, but I believe she wanted to be on the roof.
So, no mystery solved, but another unbiased logical opinion.
This started out as a note sheet for myself, but due to the popularity of this case, I thought another reference sheet could be useful to others.
