Colleen,
I'm very sorry for your loss and my heart goes out to your family. I was shocked and saddened when I heard about Wade this morning, but I take solice in the fact that he passed away doing something that I know he loved and lived to do. His dad is the consumate outdoorsman and a great deal of what I know about hunting and fishing came as a result of the Clark family taking me under their wing when I was a young lad living next to them on West 1st Street. Wade was the oldest and the biggest so I looked up to him like the big brother I never had. Memories fade with age, but here's some I'll never forget...late night jig tying sessions...jumbo crappie at Bass Camp...blue cat on the Zombro...smallmouth on the Shellrock...Mallards at Sweets...ring necks and rabbits in the ditches...minnow seining...night crawler huntin'...hangin' at Hank's with Uncle Rodney, Jim and Jack..hookey bobbin'...ditchem'...bombin' cars...hand ball at Burns...detassling...Don Williams playing in the front...Wade and Jeff giving Charlie horses in the back...Pig, Leo, Nig and Bones...my bros...good times.

Mrs Clark -my condolences to you and your family--I knew Wade before i actually met him. I knew him from late summer nights on the Cedar-he would appear out of nowhere and just like that he would b gone working his way upstream he was a fisherman amongst fishers. I recently worked with him on the flood project deal down on the Cedar-Fun Times Take care of that mean dog of his and know that Wade will definitely be with you in Spirit!!

Wade was my great friend from Emerson Elementry and I thought of him quite often through-out the many decades ( 40 plus years ) of us being seperated due to school zones ,employment and family relocations. I can not even think about what his family is going thru right now , this is tearing a hole right in my heart as we speak.I was thinking about him just last week so this is extremely difficult for me. My thought and prayers are with you and your Family and God Bless you all. Clark will always be in my heart forever!!/Steve Voshell Formerly of Waterloo,Ia / current residence Minneapolis Mn.

Colleen -
We are truly sorry to hear of Wade's passing. Both Brent and I have wonderful memories of working with Wade at Prairie and so many of them bring a smile to my face. He was such an interesting person whom I loved to see at work. He was one of those people who you never forget about.
