I regret hearing this news well after Clark’s service. I worked with Clark many, many moons ago (45 yrs) at Humber College. He was a stand-up boss who always had our back. He had such an easy going demeanour and his great sense of humour always made each day at the office a fun one. My sincerest condolences to his wife Marilyn and family
Madeline Davies says

I want to offer my most sincere condolences to you and your family during this difficult time. I have very fond memories of Clarke and always enjoyed our many chats when he would come into the store. RIP Clarke

Our sincere condolence to Marlyn and the Boyd family. We met Clarkie at the Legion while attending a craft show. He had a belt with his name on it. With his cheekie smile he replied I did. I had a leather craft table at the legion and from there on we became good friends. He was proud of his hunting and fishing awards(Ducks Unlimited etc.) He was a very skilled leather craver and his picture of a Moose and Elk was excellent. Always greeted you with a smile and chuckle. Will miss a good friend.
Matthew Burnie says
Marilyn, Matthew, Darren, and family. I’m sorry to hear about Clarke’s passing. I have fond memories of your household and traveling up to the camp in my childhood. Im glad to see Clarke’s love for life has been passed on to his boys. I don’t recall a single greeting for Clarke without a smile on his face.
David Spencer says
My condolences to the family. I know it has been tough these last couple years.
I recalled yesterday how his first deer hunt at my camp went, many years ago. He became hooked on his 1st northern deer hunt. Soon after he bought his own property nearby and set up his own camp. It was in his blood now.
Sadly times don’t alway develop the way one chooses. RIP.

Clark was one of the beautiful people I had the good fortune to know. He sponsored me into the Islington Sportsman’s club in 1995. I have become a very active member in the club ever since. I have thought of Clark often and will cherish his memory and good nature.
Sincere condolences to family and friends.

Vicki & Stephen says
One of the first couples we became friends with after moving to the area was Marilyn and Clark. Every time we went somewhere with them, we’d be stopping and waiting for Clark as we walked through crowds. So many people knew him, there was always someone stopping him for a chat. Clark was a lovable, kind man who had a lifetime of stories to tell. He had many adventures in life, we loved hearing the stories. When we think of Clark, we’ll always see him with that big, (mischievous) bright smile. Our heartfelt condolences to the obvious love of his life, Marilyn, and their family. RIP Dear Clark. ❤️
