CLARK, Gary

Gary Marshall Clark, age 88, of Atlanta, passed away on May 16, 2024 at his family's home in Jackson, Georgia.

Gary completed his U.S. Army Infantry Officer Leadership training at Ft. Benning, Georgia, and served active duty in Korea. Gary had a successful 40 year career with Westinghouse, retiring as President and Vice Chairman of the Board in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
