He was born on October 4, 1943 in Sandusky to the late Donald and Marie (Waters) Clark.

Clark; sons, David E., II, of Monroeville, Thomas and Brian (Kathy), both of Sandusky, and Mark, of Monroeville; grandchildren; great-grandchildren; sisters, Joan Schonhardt and Jeannie Withrow; brothers, Donald and Charles Clark; and nieces and nephews.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his sisters, Jenny and Susie.

The family would like to thank Dave's daughter-in-law, Kathy, for her compassionate care. They would also like to thank Stein Hospice for everything that they have done.
