Rest In Paradise, Paul. Never will forget your radiant smile and hearty laugh. We all shared some good times at Weber State hanging out. Such a good athlete and friend. RIP

God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. I'm extremely saddened to hear of the passing of my good friend and associate Paul Clark. We worked together many times over our extensive careers, spanning almost 50 years now. He will truly be missed.

"... and seeing who could recite fastest: Pinky Barry Dave Suzy Jerry Mary Paul Ricky Debbie Pam Timmy Francis Stacy Becky. The good old days." How true. How full of memories of childhood the whole Clark family was for me (and for my brother, Chris).
I can still see Paul's shy smile. Actually, I see you all as you were in 1961. I became an airline pilot (American Airlines 1978-2008). Also a writer. I remember eating Cherrys from the tree outside your house, and one time I fell from the barn rafter but landed on my feet. I live near Trumble CT, and think of the Clark family when I pass through there. I hope you are all well. If we have a chance to connect we can share stories. RIP Paul. You were a good childhood pal, and I hope you had a good life. Tom Casey

Oh well damn! I haven;t seen Paul in years since moving away. Paul was such a wide-open-hearted individual, a big, friendly, smiling radiant guy. I always admired his deep laughter. Paul was definitely a great guy, amazingly talented golfer, and a gentle giant. We shared similar struggles to become friends of Bill W. I have fond memories of sitting in the barn at the old West David Road farmhouse with Paul and Jerry, and seeing who could recite fastest: Pinky Barry Dave Suzy Jerry Mary Paul Ricky Debbie Pam Timmy Francis Stacy Becky. The good old days. Plus, Paul's dad, Bud, was so helpful to so many of us in early sobriety days. Thanks to you all for changing my life! So long, brother Paul. BTW, you still owe me $50. (I know Paul would laugh at that!)
