(KAIR)--A familiar northeast Kansas law enforcement officer of many years has died.
Albert “Butch” Clark died Thursday at his rural Holton Home. He was 72-years-old.
Among Clark's many roles in Kansas law enforcement was serving as Sheriff of Nemaha County, a position he was appointed to in 1978, and which he filled until 2001.
Among the numerous other agencies Clark worked for during his 34-year-law enforcement career, according to his obituary from Holton's Mercer Funeral Home, was the Holton and McLouth Police Departments, the Iowa and Sac and Fox Tribal Police Department, and the Sheriff's Offices of Jefferson and Jackson counties.
Clark retired from law enforcement in 2006.
He will be laid to rest, with Military Honors, Tuesday at the Denison Cemetery. That will follow a funeral service Tuesday morning at 10:00 at the Mercer Funeral Home, in Holton.
Clark is survived by his wife of more than 52-years, Marcia, along with four children. His son, Bryan, of Atchison, serves in law enforcement, working for the Kansas Highway Patrol.
