Dad you were the best dad a girl could ever wish for. Your sense of humour has been passed down to us all and your love of the outdoors. You took us 6 Clark kids on many many tramps and adventures. Your grandchildren shared adventures with you especially in your ute. Love and miss you forever dad, especially your hugs. Xx
