Richard Clark
April 10, 1956 — April 10, 2016

Dick was born on April 10, 1956 in Marysville, KS to E. Jean and Betty (Schell) Clark. He graduated from Kansas State University in 1981 with a Bachelor of Science.

He loved sharing all of his interests with his friends and family. He was an active and dedicated member of the Kansas State Alumni and Flint Hill Flyers, and also dedicated his time to substituting at his alma mater, Manhattan High School, in the Science department.
