Please accept my condolences to you and your family. Mr Clark (as I knew him at Allderdice) was an amazing art teacher, a very kind-hearted person with a wicked sense of humor. Aside from that, he was a fabulous art teacher, always encouraging us students. I always looked forward to going to class to learn and laugh. May his memory be a blessing to all..

Lucinda and family,
Sorry to hear of Dave´s passing. My memories of our times together include
Fifth Avenue, the Up in Smoke golf league and our Sunday morning basketball ball games together at Allderdice. To this day I tell people about Dave´s ability to walk the length of the basketball court on his hands, an amazing feat. As a fellow Nittany lion our conversations touched on our time at PSU, politics, family and of course golf. Dave was a passionate and artistic guy who held fast to his beliefs. Hold on to your memories and continue to tell his story.
