Edward Clark

Carleen and Family, Years ago (circa 2015/16), during my undergraduate I was connected with him through the Veteran's Support Center at the U of Utah. I sat down in a meeting with him and expressed my interest in medical school and becoming a physician. He took me in and helped me shape my military experiences into a packet that would culminate in me being able to pursue my dreams of becoming a doctor. I am forever grateful for the mentorship, guidance and support he gave me through my...

Ed and I were colleagues many years ago when we were both studying mechanisms of early heart development. We met often at scientific meetings and traded ideas over the telephone. I am so very to learn of his passing but am certain the world is a better place because Ed was here. I write this from Hanover NH a mile or so from where he did his residency and from where I retired some years ago. The granite hills of New Hampshire seem grey today, a spirit of theirs has gone.

As a former Dean of the UoU College of Health, I had the good fortune to know Ed Clark. He was kind, smart, passionate, and considerate and respectful of other health care professions. I found him to be a great collaborator and an outstanding leader. He taught by example and commitment.

Carleen & Family, We were so sorry to hear about Ed´s death. You all will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Carleen, I was so sorry to see this news. Ed was a fellow at JHU when I was a third-year medical student. Although I had a strong interest in Peds Card, he cemented it for me. Then, when I arrived at Iowa for my fellowship, he had just joined the faculty. My first paper was with him, and it was accepted without revisions! He said that had never happened to him and it certainly has never happened to me again! After you left Iowa, our paths crossed many times with our work with the...

I will always be grateful for the kindness Dr. Clark showed to me ever since my days as a medical student at the University of Utah. I participated in a research program for senior medical students, and Dr. Clark was encouraging, supportive, and so complimentary of me - he built my confidence. I remember him taking my parents aside after a presentation I made where they were in attendance and he paid special attention to them, complimenting them and praising me. Ed loved his family and...

So sorry to hear of Ed's passing. We were co-Cum Laudes at Albany Med. I was hoping to see him at the up and coming Albany Med reunion and catch up on his remarkable journey and contributions at Salt Lake .

I was involved in the search that brought Ed to Utah, along with Dr. George Durham. As the CEO of Primary Children's Hospital, I have experienced the evidence that a higher power watched over the hospital and its mission. Ed was one of those manifestations. He was exactly the right person at exactly the right time. I have fond memories of our work together over 16 years that I will always treasure. I learned a great deal from him. Ed made me a better leader and a better person. He...
