Clark was a colorful character! I will miss running into him around town and hearing his unique take on issues. I am so sorry for his loss for his ex-wife/current friend Alison, and kids Ella and Gus, who grew up with my kids.
Clark was a good neighbor, always willing to help and engage in cooperative projects. And he was a wonderful whistler! His clarion celebration of life accompanied him everywhere and enlivened the neighborhood. Whether sharing rhubarb or kibitzing about local arts or politics, he was open, aware, and engaged.
