I´m so sorry to hear of Clark´s passing. I worked for him for about four years. He was a kind and generous person. I got to see his love for his family.

Clark. You will be greatly missed. No one did more for the Financial Services industry that you. I will miss your 30 years of friendship. Fred

I met Clark by chance when an insurance associate introduced me to him in his office. I immediately noticed a unique clock hanging on the wall behind him. My father had a similar "caricature clock" hanging on a wall in his office in Omaha, Nebraska. Learned that they both were members of the same Toastmasters Club, and this was a gift produced by artist Gary Brown (who happened to work for my father-Sam Greenberg) given to outgoing presidents of the group. As luck would have it, Clark and...

Our industry has lost a true giant-his many contributions enriched us all,...

What can you say about a living legend, other than I had the honor of knowing him. May you rest in heavenly peace, Clark. You will be missed!

Clark was a force. Funny, smart, handsome, and charming. Definitely one of a kind. As the father of one on my closest friends, Susan Rydell, I can attest to the fact that Clark truly loved his family. The last time I saw Clark was as we danced at Katie and Lannie's wedding. A charming gentleman and might I add, a great dancer! JJ Jordan
