Joseph F. Clark

Clark....Having you as a mentor for 2 years and a teacher for maybe 3, i want to say thanks for all that you have taught me and all the advice that u have given to me throught my 4 years..

Joe, you and I had so much in common and our paths go back many years with our similar SJ Prep experience running from Father McGinty and dodging jug.
Our miraculous graduations from LaSalle as well as our dads being friends and prep alumni made our friendship unique.
I only regret that we didn't have the chance to hang out more with each other.
Your beautiful qualities of being funny, bright, interesting and thoughtful will be missed greatly by us all.
Your friend,
Rick...

There was so much I wanted to say to you but never got a chance. Thank you for everything . You had a gift that was unique and you were able to share that with everyone you touched. For those who did not get to know you sure missed out on alot. I know youre in excellent hands now and in my belief I will see you again. All my...

Joe,

I will always remember our spirited political discussions, your fantastic mix of intelligence, experience, and wisdom, your famous "inside jokes", and our class trips to the Monmouth Symposium. You were a fantastic person to work with, and a great mentor to staff and students alike. I'm going to miss you, and I can't believe you are gone. God bless you and your family.

Joe was one of the finest people I've ever known. I will always have a place for him in my heart.

To Joe: I'll miss you my friend. Don't worry, I won't tell any stories here.

The obituary cannot even touch upon the impact this man has had at Academy Charter H.S. His absence from the school will be extremely hard to become accustomed to.
Joe Clark is a legend at our little school and made my transition into the ACHS family a smooth and memorable one. I remember during my interview when he asked "What side of 95 did you do your student teaching on?" An odd question in my opinion but something he decided was crucial to hiring me. He would go out of his way...

Joe Clark
Well Darlin' alot of people are going to miss that smile and cheerful face.
You were a good man to all who crossed your path. You always tried to bring a positive outlook to everything. May you rest in peace.
Love, Rosie
