Last year Clark was diagnosed with ALS, Lou Gehrig’s disease. Within a short period of time he went from being an active, healthy man to a person confined in a wheelchair and who had difficulty speaking. As I traveled around the States to do fundraising for For His Children, I was even more touched by the amount of people that Clark impacted. People who only spent a short amount of time with him on a missions trip to FHC or time when he came to visit their church, would talk about him like he was an old friend. During my time of traveling, I received a phone call telling me that Clark had passed away. Condolences came from around the world. A hole has been left but we are comforted in the fact that he is no longer suffering. It is truly incredible to see how God works when we truly give Him all of us; when we commit fully to His will for our lives. Clark’s life was a wonderful example of this.
