William R. Clark Jr. M.D.

Hey Bill, was thinking about you just yesterday.we'd have lots to talk about these days Miss those long philosophical chats.

Hey, Bill, and you Lourie, I miss you both and think of you often. The time I spent with each of you was very special and important to me. You live still, right up front in my memory banks. Enjoy the warm sun (it's ok to relax and enjoy, Bill) on the spring grass overhead. Love you both, Dennis

I am greatful to have worked with Dr. Clark. I am thankful that he believed in me so many years ago when he hired me to work in the Burn Unit. The early years were difficult and I learned a great deal from Dr.Clark. I owe my career to him and I am appreciative. He was a very strong, dedicated man. My condolences to his family and friends.

Bill, I didn't know that you had passed. What sadness this brings me. I will never forget you, or our Alagash trip.Your student, Evan M. Dentes

Laurie, Sorry to here of Bill's passing. The Reini's send our love and prayers to you and your family. We will always remember Dr. Clark coming over Sunday nights for dinner and a sauna.

Bill will be missed by all of us at Sonnenberg Gardens and Mansion. His contributions and legacy has greatly advanced our mission and cause in our community. Our deepest condolences to Laurie and the family. David Hutchings and the board, staff and volunteers of Sonnenberg. May God comfort your hearts during the time of your loss.

Dr. Bill, former Trustee, came back to see us last fall at Sonnenberg Gardens (Canandaigua NY) where our Director presented him with our highest honor, the Mary Clark Thompson Award -- and not just because Mrs. Thompson was his "Aunt Mary" ! The honor and pleasure were truly ours, to know this wonderful man and have him as a great friend of Sonnenberg. We will miss him. Our thoughts & prayers are with Laurie and all the Clark family. (Dory Wilson, Chair, Sonnenberg History Committee)

At the Frederic Remington Art Museum we were privileged and grateful for Dr. Bill Clark's counsel and support. Even in recent years when it wasn't easy he still made the long trip to Ogdensburg board meetings and other gatherings. We will miss our dear friend sorely.

Bill was complex, gifted, at ease with himself. He inspired others with his strength of will and physical stamina. He had the skill to recognize people with skills that complemented his own, and the wisdom and grace to let them excel. He inspired loyalty and returned it in kind. A driven perfectionist who was alway curious and always learning. It was a privilege to work with him, to see his deep compassion for his patients. I am confident that everyone who knew him was better for it. ...
