Richard "Dick" Louis Clark

Clark, Richard "Dick" Louis, went to be with his Lord and Savior, Tuesday, September 22, 2026.

Beloved husband for 67 years of the late Norma E. "Betty" (nee Holsapple) Clark; loving and adored father of Cheryl (Avery) Smith, Denise (Larry) Konneman, Vicki (Rick) Wiliams, and Kerry (Paul, Jr.) Bruce; dear grandpa of Scott, Jenny, Cory, Brent, Kelly, Rhett, Kendra, Allyson, Clark, Anna, and Laura; cherished great grandpa of 37, and great great grandpa of 3; loving brother-in-law, uncle, and friend to many.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Chester and Alice Clark, and his brothers, Howard and Jerry.

Dick was born in St. Louis, MO on October 24, 1926. He started his walk with the Lord in 1937 at the age of ten. His personal relationship with God was the most important thing to him next to his family. He faithfully served over 50 years as teacher, deacon, and elder at Tower Grove Baptist Church, First Baptist Church of Ellisville, and Fellowship of Wildwood Baptist Church. Dick retired from over 60 years at Steelweld Equipment Company.

The Bible verse that he and Betty build their life on was Matthew 6:33 "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided for you." God's faithfulness was evident in their lives.
