Donald Eugene Clark

I just found out about Don's passing today (Dec 23). Don was one of my first and formative music teachers as well as the director of our church choir where I attended.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

Don was a valued colleague and friend at OBU for over 30 years. His artistic performing skills and his love of the teaching process were unmatched. We counted Don and Wanda among our cherished friends in the OBU and Shawnee-wide community. As the band and orchestra director for 25 plus years, I could always count on their loyal support in concert attendance. Don will truly be missed in Shawnee but his legacy will endure forever. RIP my friend! ✝
