To the Clarke Family,
I am so sorry to hear of 'Jumbo's' passing.
I remember him well and the times that we shared as far back as the 1950's. I last spoke with him last summer. (I now spend the winters else where).
Please accept my sincere sumpathy. I will keep family and friends in prayer.

I just learned today, June 1, 2011, through our mutual friend Tony Tobias, of Mr. Clarke's passing. I worked with him at the Inter-American Development Bank and have wonderful memories of him, his smile and his love for the Redskins.

I am very sorry that Mr.Clarke passed away. He touched the life of every member of my family. It is hard to put into words what I feel right now. He was such a good friend. He will be always remembered with love and gratitude.
