(CNN) -- The death of a U.S. Army captain who died while engaged in a
video chat with his wife from Afghanistan remained under investigation
Saturday, the family said.

.

Capt. Bruce Kevin Clark was in Tarin Kowt, about 85 miles (140 kilometers)
north of Kandahar, when he died during a Skype session with his wife.

.

Clarence Davis, a spokesman for the William Beaumont Army Medical Center
in El Paso, Texas, where Clark was based, said that it has not been
determined how Clark died and that the case is under investigation.

.

Clark's family said in a statement that they'd hoped for "a miracle" after
his wife Susan saw what happened to Clark during their chat on Monday, but
"it was not to be." They did not elaborate as to what took place.

.

"Although the circumstances were unimaginable, Bruce's wife and extended
family will be forever thankful that he and his wife were together in his
last moments," Clark's wife and family said Friday.

.

Clark -- known by many as Kevin -- was a chief nurse in the Army who
amassed many honors in his military career, according to his family. Those
include an Army Commendation Medal, Military Outstanding Volunteer
Service, Global War on Terrorism Service Medal and an Army Service Medal.

"He loved being in the military," his sister-in-law Mariana Barry told CNN
affiliate WHAM in upstate New York. "He was absolutely willing to make any
sacrifice, and it's just horrible that this is the sacrifice he ended up
making."

.

His commander described Clark, 43, as "awesome," "professional" and "a
great asset, leader and friend," the family said.

.

After his death, special operations troops from the United States and
Australia lined up to give him his final send-off from Afghanistan.
