for dad - July 17th

A day full of memories both joyful and poignant.

1944 – on this day, two amazingly beautiful people, promised before God and their families to love, honour and cherish each other. I, personally, am so thankful that they carried through on their promise…. the result…. our incredible loving family, that is a joy to be part of and to watch grow. Dad, you should be so proud – your children are loving, kind, generous of heart and spirit, funny, crazy, ambitious and most of all, have passed on those traits to their children and grandchildren.

2005 – on this day, our mom & grandma, your helpmate/loving wife and partner, in this Clark Family Venture, left us to go Home. I know that she continues to love you and all of us from that distant shore and is so proud of you and how you have been able to express your love for her and us and have also been strong and able to carry on despite a couple of physical challenges.

2006 – on this day I would love for us all to be together to celebrate this day of memories with you but as that is not possible I want to remind you that we are with you in heart and spirit and will take time today to reflect on how much July 17th means to all of us

I went through some of the pictures on my computer and found a couple that I liked and so include here for you.

Love you 2-7 Dad - Jil & Tom



As you always said dad "You don't have to be crazy, to be part of this family, but it sure helps!"



I've always loved this picture of the two of you - in harmony on Christmas day!!
