Patty, Erica, Erin, & Johnny.
Sorry for your loss. John was a wonderful man and it is a great loss for this community. I have and will continue to pray for you and your family.

I played for John at Madera High in the early 1980's, and later began my coaching career working for him at Hanford High School. He was a great person, and a great friend. He had a big heart and genuinely cared for kids. I'm very thankful that I got to know John Clark, he had a tremendous influence on my life. My heart goes out to Patty and all of John's family, you're in my prayers.

I am very sorry to hear of Coach Clark's passing. I had the opportunity to babysit the Clark children during my high school years when Coach Clark was the head coach at Hanford High School (1988-1990). What a treat that was! Blessed memories.

Dear Clark Family,
I played for Coach Clark in 88' and 89'. He taught me alot about football and teamwork. Ten years later, we were reacquainted and we became friends. I coached youth football in Hanford and John was always willing to give coaching tips and advice. He has been a positive influence on so many other youngsters and we are all blessed to have known him. Thank you for sharing him with us. He will be missed.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
