CENTER BARNSTEAD – Clinton Lloyd "Dipper" Lank, 69, of Center Barnstead, passed away on Tuesday, January 7, 2025 in his home.
He was born on November 24, 1955 in Concord, son of the late Howard J. and Hazel I. (Parker) Lank.
Clinton attended school in Pittsfield, NH. He owned and ran his own concrete business, C. L. Lank Concrete for more than 40 years. "Dipper", as he was known by all his family and friends, loved the water. He was often found fishing or boating on Suncook Lake where his family still resides. He also enjoyed hunting, woodworking, and sharing his unique sense of humor with others. He spent a great deal of time restoring antique cars; among his favorites were his '55 Chevy Nomad, '66 Corvette Stingray Convertible, and '32 Ford pickup. Dipper loved to tinker and was considered a jack of all trades; if he didn't know how to make it work he would certainly figure it out.
Besides his parents, he was predeceased by his brother, Howard "Howie" Lank.
Clinton is survived by his wife of 44 years, Suzan (Desjardins) Lank of Ctr. Barnstead, children John Lank and his wife Khrissy of Barnstead, Amie Frederick and her husband Christopher of Williston, VT and Cody Lank of Barnstead, sisters Carol Watson and her husband Ernest of FL and Gail Murphy of Ctr. Barnstead, grandchildren Eva Harbison, Chase & Bradley Lank, Hadley and Olive Frederick as well as nieces and nephews.
