Aunt Doris, Linda, John and families. So sad to hear of Uncle Clarks passing. You are certainly in my thoughts and prayers at this time. I always loved his phone calls with his starting statement.......is there smoke coming out your chimney. Always joking and teasing. What a guy. I know how much he loved those London Knights and sure he will be watching from above during the playoffs. Missed not seeing the two of you the last couple of years. Lucky I had a chance to run into Uncle Clark at the mall in the fall. Had a wee chat in passing and he still had that little grin no matter how he was feeling. Do know Aunt Doris I am here if you need anything or just have a chat. I know how important friends and family are at this time. I am thinking of you! Love Marianne

So sorry to hear about Clarkys passing. He was a great role model for a lot of Johns motley crew friends. He was so good to a bunch of kids who were really bad actors but loved spending time with him. I am sure that Wally, Mike B. , myself and a bunch of other characters improved because he always cared and had time for us.

Dear Doris, Thinking of you with sympathy in your sad loss, may memories bring comfort.

Aunt Doris, John, Lynda, Brian and your families, remembering you in our thoughts and prayers, with heartfelt sympathy at the loss of your loved one. Uncle Clark has always been so much more to us than an uncle. His smile and his caring ways, wondering how we were doing was his trademark of love freely given. He always had that twinkle in his eyes, whether teasing or tricking! I remember one cold winter night, he arrived in Stratford on his way back to London from Hepworth. He was in such a hurry to leave, he still had his overcoat on while drinking his cup of tea. He turned and winked saying, "Oh by the way, Aunt Hilda sent you a little treat, reach in my pocket and get it out befor it melts." I reached in and pulled out a little ball of fur named Roxy, as promised. Keeping you in our prayers Aunt Doris, thanks uncle Clark for being just you! Our sympathy and love, Jack and Lois.

Dear John and Family, my memories of Clark will always be there, a stealthy walk and look at every car, I believe he never met a car he didn’t love. He will always hold a special spot in my heart, never to be forgotten. A true gentleman.

~ Marty and Debbie Gruber

Dear Doris.John & Family It is with deep sorrow we learned of Clark"s passing. He was a one of a kind gentleman and touched us both deeply. A sound and gererous man who made knowing him as a friend a rewarding experience. God bless him on his new journey he so richley deserves.

~ Ray & Doris Bradley

So sorry. Please know you are in our thoughts

~ Wally & Lenore Jackson

Psst Dave, I'll give you more money for that trade than Big Thor!!! Clark taught me an awful lot about the used car business that I utilized over the years. A true gentleman and a good man. He will be missed.

Aunt Doris and John and Lynda and all family members. Great memories of a great man from a great family. His smooth demeanor and smile that so many have mentioned was a great combination. He always seemed to have time for me at family gatherings. I know how close my mum and aunts felt to him and it rubbed off on all of us. I especially remember aunt Verne and how much she loved and cared for him too. You will miss him soooo much and when you do fill those moments with memories. I have one memory where he and uncle Scotty were telling stories (I believed them to be true at the time). You could hear the laughter a block away. Another great Loughlean--what a family !!!

~ Brian Shantz

My thoughts and prayers go to Doris and John and your families. Having the opportunity to work with Clarke when I was a young man has always been treasured. Seeing him over the years was always a bright spot in the day, his smile always contagious.

~ Al Farmer

Aunt Doris Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in the loss of Uncle Clark. A wonderful man to know and will be missed by all who knew him. Take one day at a time and may the support of family and friends get you through this difficult time. Love Margaret Adams-Williams and Louis (Skip)

We will surely miss Clark with his special smile and teasing ways. He was such a great friend and neighbour. After you moved to London, Raymond really missed walking over with his coffee and having a chat. We have wonderful memories. Our heart goes out to you , Lynda, John and the kids. Love, Raymond & Judi

~ Raymond & Judi

Aunt Doris, John, Lynda and your families, Thinking of you all and remembering my Uncle Clark. He was a handsome, fun loving Uncle who wore a smile while teasing me....the teasing was always expected and Uncle Clark never failed to deliver! He will be greatly missed by all of you as well as by his sisters, my Mom, my Aunt Hilda and my Aunt Bernice. I know the joy and sometimes complete frustration from teasing by an older brother (a somewhat younger brother for Aunt Hilda) and I know that I treasure the growing up memories as they do also. As time passes, I hope that you are able to share your memories and remember all the wonderful times that you had together. Be gentle with yourselves and remember that others care. Warm Hugs, Cheryl

Thinking of you Doris , John, Lynda & Brian & your families. This is such a sad time for you and for me too. I have wonderful memories especially of our growing up years together.

I love my brother and will miss talking on the phone with him. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Yvonne
