Clark was a great friend in years gone by. I have only learned of his passing tonight. I have, and will, miss his great, big personality. Rest well, my friend. Ken.

My condolences to Clark's family. I only had the privilege of knowing him in a professional capacity for 2 years, but I am so glad that I met him. At first, we did not see eye to eye on the value of one of his properties.
However, presented with many facts and after many conversations, he and I found common ground. I sold his Concord property and was his leasing agent for another of his buildings. During that time, wee became friends and talked politics vehemently as well as what we saw at our ages that really needed to be changed. His knowledge of history and world events was extensive. I shall miss his friendship. Wilma Willson

Clark was our neighbor in Loudon. He was always so kind to us and happy to let our four small children ride their bikes in his driveway. We missed seeing him when he moved and are very saddened by the news of his passing. Our condolences go out to his family.

Clark and I shared many adventures, many troubles over the years. You cannot sum up in a few words the life of a man you knew for decades, but let it be said that he was a man his family should be proud of and whose memory should be cherished.
