stemelbow Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Our beloved poster Clark? I’ve always respected him, and regarded him as one of the fine ones. My sincerest to his people. I always enjoyed him Link to comment

CA Steve Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Horrible news. He was one of my favorite posters here and truly a gentleman. 4 Link to comment
Tacenda Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I always thought of Clark Gable when I read his avatar. Or was that his real name too. I had no idea of his authored articles on Times and Seasons. I'll do some reading. He was a great contributor on this discussion board. I wonder what happened. His last article was published on Aug. 30th, may he RIP. Link to comment
Physics Guy Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 If this is true it's extremely sad news. I was always interested to see what Clark thought. 3 Link to comment

Popular Post JLHPROF Posted September 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 8, 2019 - that's so sad. Had he given any indication in a post? His contributions were so intelligent and measured. I'll miss him. 5 Link to comment
Popular Post bluebell Posted September 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 8, 2019 That is so incredibly sad. He was one of my favorites, and I can only image how difficult it is for his family. Didn't he have a small child with significant health injuries too? His poor wife. 5 Link to comment

Popular Post juliann Posted September 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 8, 2019 There are not many people who leave a hole in this forum that can’t be filled. He will. There is a report that it was a stroke. 8 Link to comment
Scott Lloyd Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 (edited) This is indeed a shock. He was a thoughtful and intelligent person and had in my view become a fixture here. I respect his courage to post under his real name. Edited September 8, 2019 by Scott Lloyd 4 Link to comment
bsjkki Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 (edited) Is it appropriate to post the funeral arrangements here for those in Utah? This was such sad news and his poor wife and children. Edited September 8, 2019 by bsjkki 2 Link to comment

Robert F. Smith Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 (edited) I'll be there to pay my respects to a brilliant scholar, who was always so thoughtful. Learned a lot from him. Seems he was posting here right up to the very end. ETA: Just realized that is my old Stake Center -- Provo Stake. We probably attended Stake Conf there a number of times in the same room, and never realized it. Edited September 8, 2019 by Robert F. Smith 3 Link to comment
Kevin Christensen Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Always thoughtful posts. He has been a distinctively well informed voice on the bloggernacle for many years. But too young for such news. He will be missed. Kevin C. 3 Link to comment

These are things we have to think about in California. Of course it is up to the family, but I would get family permission before publishing it here for this reason True tragedy. Now I will have to meet him on the other side. I knew he was ill. Link to comment

mfbukowski Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 So sad- he will be sorely missed. We sparred a lot but it was always in the sphere of friendship, and he was a great student of philosophy especially its history. He had no equal in that area I think. 4 Link to comment
