JAMES IAN CLARK

Condolences & Memories (5 entries)

• I want to first express my deepest and most sincerest condolences to Mrs. Clark. You may not have remembered me. I was the young Filipino fellow that you met in superstore on Grant location 6 or 7 years ago. Mr. Clark had his trademark trenchcoat and his tweed hat. I introduced myself as Joenel and i praised Mr. Clark for being such an awesome math teacher and a great person behind his teaching personae. He always had jokes to share and made a lot of his students laugh. He had such a beautiful smile. When I first met him, His eyes would always disappear underneath his glasses. I am definitely gonna miss him as a whole because he was awesome through and through. I can tell that he had passion for what he did. His parkinson's was already apparent when he was teaching but he did not let that slow him down. he always made you feel great after you leave his classroom. I sometimes loved to stay longer so I can spend more time with him. He always was such a great company. He was a great addition to my life and I am sure to other countless other people. He always made his classes fun to go to even though the classes were hard (math was never my strong suit), he made it possible for me to get a grasp of it. Sometimes he would use illustrations to get his message across and it would help. He had an empathetic personality. He was always very sweet. He was only stern to those that deserved it but 99% of the time, he always had a smile in his face. I will dearly miss him for a lot of other things but I probably might end up writing a whole synapses. Thank you Mr. Clark for everything. I only say this to my family and my beautiful girlfriend but I do definitely love you Mr. Clark. You will forevermore have a place in my heart and memories. Sleep well now. - Posted by: Joenel Paraton (Former Student of Daniel McIntyre) on: Sep 14, 2024

• Ian and I were both students in Agriculture at University of Manitoba in the 1950s and traveled to the campus together. We moved to different regions after that but for many years we kept in touch. I met Petra and their children and was impressed. My Condolences to Petra and their family. - Posted by: Ken Sanderson (Like Ian, I was a student in Agriculture in the 1950s) on: Sep 06, 2024
