William Ramon Clark
"I am not my mistakes. I am not a mess up. I am better than whom I was. I am learning and applying expertly every day. My strength and endurance is exponentially exploding. There is nothing that I cannot accomplish. My luck is forever great as your love for me God. I give you all thanks, glory, and affection. Forever am I blessed, Forever Am I Loved. Amen." - William Clark *Romans 14:7-8, Philippians 4:13, John 16:22*
Will enjoyed the simple things and spending time outdoors, hunting, & fishing. Most importantly he cherished the memories he got to make with family and friends. He loved spending time golfing with his parents as he was their golfing buddy. The way he would geek out over anime and Lord of the Rings. The time he would spend with his nieces and nephews that included those loving warm embracing teddy bear hugs. They also enjoyed all laughter and craziness that he would bring because it was so infectious that his laugh would fill the room. Will was a true ray of sunshine in the darkest of storms. His singing was so soulful that it could calm the craziest of storms and settle the waters. He had such a kind and compassionate spirit that you'd want to be around. He would go out of his way or even give you the shirt off of his back. If you were having a bad day, or needed someone to talk to, Will was there.
Especially when it came to planning my husband and I wedding. We needed an officiant and we both said instantly Will, we both loved how his voice had a way of captivating you. When we asked Will if he would be our officiant. His eyes lit up and that infectious smile appeared. His voice crack with excitement and joy and said “I would be honored to.”
Will also always had a way of making us laugh. And trying to figure out how to become an officiant was no different. When Will called the courthouse for information. Asking the first lady he said “What do I need to do to marry my sister?” The lady said “Hold please”. Less than a minute later he was transferred and the next lady picked up and said “how can I help you?” And Will says again “What do i need to do to marry my sister?” And then she said “Hold Please”. So Will had sat for at least 10 mins waiting for someone to answer his simple question. Finally a man answered and said “So what is it that you need?” Will said “I just need to know how to marry my sister?. The man replied, “Sir you can’t marry your sister, it isn’t legal. It took Will a minute then he said, Oh no that's not what I meant. I don't want to marry my sister, I want to marry her to someone else.
All these memories, the good and the bad, I will always cherish because they had Will in them. I will never forget that night that you were called home the feeling of being so dreary with no light in sight. As we walked outside your nieces and nephews voices said, Mom, Dad look look up in the sky, and they pointed to the brightest shining star and they said that’s the Uncle Will Star. Yes babies, that is Uncle Will. He is always looking over us and shining so bright to light our way. In his own way he was there that night trying to show us that even though his body is gone his spirit is always with us even in the darkest of days.
