This comes from Sue Rice. Thanks Sue.

"As I was looking through some pictures, I found these of Robert this past Christmas.

My grandaughter, Kira, doesn't warm up to people very easily, but Robert won her over when he sat and played the piano with her. It is a special memory for all of us.

Also, Robert and the girls came over to take the kids for a snow machine ride around the yard. They still talk about "Uncle Robert taking them for a ride". One of them even went in their pajamas. They will always remember it and it is a picture that will forever be in my heart of how good he was with our babies. We miss him so much."

Memorial Day Weekend

The Clarks got together last weekend and had the opportunity to visit Robert's grave and the beautiful headstone Sue picked out. Can you see the little snowmobiler on the mountain? How perfect. This weekend was the perfect opportunity to reflect back on Robert's life on this earth. Never a dull moment. He is missed every day...every second. Robert will always live on through Sue, Kaycie, Quincie and Sidney. You can't help but feel humbled and full of love when you're around these ladies. Thank you Robert for marrying a woman as lovely as Sue and producing three great girls. We love the Robert Clark family and are so glad to know that Robert's memory will live on throughout this earthly life...until we meet again.

Nice 'stache!

These pictures were sent from Todd Parker. I love that he's wearing that hat and glasses while catching some serious air at Grand Targhee.

Annual 5K Fun Run/Walk

All are invited to participate in the Annual 5K Fun Run/Walk on the 4th of July in Soda. This year's race is extra special because we're racing for Robert. The race director, Bill Horsley, wrote this about the race.
"Many of Robert Clark’s friends and family expressed a desire to run the July 4th Rotary fun run as a tribute to Robert’s memory. When I was approached with this idea I immediately thought that this would be a great opportunity to create a much more lasting and meaningful tribute by creating a fund to benefit young runners in the Soda Springs XC program that may not be able to participate without a little help with the expense of shoes and appropriate running attire. If you would like to contribute please designate the amount you would like to add to your entry fee for this purpose. This money will be held in an account with the Soda Springs Education Foundation for future use of aspiring young runners.
Thanks,
Bill Horsley (Race Director)"
If you'd like to enter the race, please leave your email in the comment section below and steffani (steffanic03@yahoo.com) will email you the registration forms. Kids are also welcome so please indicate if you'd like a child entry form as well. Thanks for your support! This sure means alot to Sue and the Clark family.

Lake Powell

I never got to enjoy a trip to Powell with Robert, but I can guess he made them fun. This video and pictures are posted by Monty who did spend time there with them. There are more pictures here - gallery.me.com/mchasej/

Dec.5 2008

In December, Lyle and Melanie's families got together in Salt Lake City for lunch and Robert was a hit as usual. We left the lunch laughing our heads off at how he made his way around the room and talked to EVERYONE. No one was left out as you can see from the picture. There were a lot of comments from those there that he was quite the social butterfly that day.

For many there, it was one of the last times they saw him and he definately left an impression. Robert didn't really know these kids that well, but made great friends of them by the time they left. I can say that daily I think about how great he was and try to make myself a little better.
