I am sad to hear about Clark's passing. He was a great friend and I will surely miss him. I hope that his memory will live long in the Ft. Rucker community. My deepest condolences on his loss. I will say a prayer for Barbra and Clark tonight.....

I worked for Clark from 1982 through 1985, while at Fort Rucker. He was, perhaps, the best "Boss" I ever had. He was a soldier´s soldier, a born leader and a great army aviator.
