Clark was my Father-in-law. He had
a nickname of "Superman" and that
is how he will be remembered. He
wore a smile and felt "Excellent".
His love for the kids during chemo.
and service at Cabrini will be noted by the angels. We still know
about his love of old trucks. The
family trip to Disney World was awesome!!! We love you dad!!!

I got the pleasure in meeting Clark through the Detroit Public Schools. There was never a negative response when asking : "How are you today?" His response would always be "WONDERFUL". He was truly a well-rounded individual who was totally positive. Although, the time came when he departed this earth, I feel the angels guided him in his re-birth. Many thoughts and prayers go out to the family. May you find strength in each and every memory and guidance to help you through this difficult time. God bless you and keep you in his care.
With Deepest Sympathy!!!

To: The Clark Family,
I worked with Clark at IBM back in 1990-1992 on the AS400 operating system. As a matter of fact, Clark was known as "Mr. AS400". Clark was a friend and a great work associate, he would help me with any problems I had. I have great respect for Clark, his professional and knowledge at IBM, Detroit Public Schools, and CDP.
I had the opportunity to meet and share lunch with his lovely wife and daughter at Oakwood Hospital, both down to earth people.
God has called an angel home, you are truly missed.
Clark is in God's Divine Care:
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you. - Isaiah 43:2 NKJV

Beloved Clark Family Members, it is a sad time for all of us.
Clark was one of my closest friend. His positive attitude impressed me most. Whatever problem I faced in technical field at Detroit Public Schools he was there for me to help. He was a great teacher and I miss him very dearly. My family will miss his smiley and friendly personality.
I pray God to give strength to your family members in this troubled times. I strongly believe when God has to assign some duties, he will call his best of the best, and Clark is in that category.
Stay strong, good things will happen to you and God bless you all.

I would like to say thank you to the family and most of all to the God Almighty for allowing such a great man to enter into my life and to the lives of so many people here @ the Detroit Public Schools,his kindness, patience,and positive attitude toward people & life turned many of my days from sadness to joy. However I know this is a great loss, and the days to come will be hard @ times memories will overwhelm you and a piece of your heart will continually weep, for I know, because of the loss of my mother last month, oh but what a joy I have when I think of all her goodness, teaching and guidance that she gave me, and how special our family was, that the lord blessed us with two of his best children my mother and Clark.
They were truely witnesses for God.
and if we live our life as they did we will surely see them again.
God Bless you & keep you.

My sympathy to the McKibben family. I knew Clark through his work at IBM. I was one of the many IBM clients who saw Clark when there was a major problem with the computer system. Although his technical expertise was greatly appreciated by his clients, it was his personality and consistantly positive attitude that we loved most about him.

Clark was the most optimistic person I will ever know. He would be able to brighten any situation. He was definitely a great person to be around.

Worked and laughed a lot with Clark. He made the world a much better place to be. He will be missed, and we are better off because we knew him. We wish his wife and family all the best. If there is a heaven I know he will be there with a smile to greet us.
