I am so sorry for your loss. I have so many fond memories of the Clark family from my childhood. Mr. Clark was always so kind to me. I just drove down Purser street the other day and was thinking back 40 years ago how all the kids played in the street. I pray for comfort for all of you. Love to all.

Wish I had been able to see Jarrell when I was in Pineville taking care of my mom, but it was not to be.
Will always love and miss you, Jarrell, but now you are with Billye Ruth, Travis, Mary Helen and Kenneth and so many others in a much better, well-deserved place with the Lord. Jeanne Dudney Liberato

I was deeply saddened to see that I will never be able to see Mr. Clark in this world again. He was such a gentleman and always so sweet, even when I knew he wasn't feeling well. I will miss him. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family.

Linda & Family,
I fondly remember how sweet your mother and father were when I visited as a teen. Having your dad live such a long and full life is a blessing. I know he will be missed but the memories will live on.
Always your friend,
