Sincere condolences to the Clark family and friends. Thank you for sharing this brilliant man and mind. As a retired employee of the Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission I remain grateful for his support and leadership as it related to Affirmative Action and inclusion. His desire to know and understand. His sensitivity and commitment are worthy of recognition. A world trailblazer whose ethics and standards were respected and real at all levels. His leadership style made communication necessary and possible. The epitome of humanity. Rest easy Dr. Clark. Thank you. You were appreciated and you are remembered!
Sincerely.
Carolyn G. Thomas,
