Paul Ora Clark!

I thought I would take a minute and write a little about my dad. Through out my life I have always complained about having the same name as my dad, but I have come to be privileged to have the same name as my father. My dad isnt a bigger talker, we never sat down and had heart to heart talks or anything but he showed me by example how to be a great man. I started playing sports year round when I was 6 and from than to my last high school game my dad was at every single game or match that I had. I can only think of 1 wrestling tournament in 5th grade and a 1 bball game my freshman year that my dad was not in attendance. Back then I didn't think much of it but now I realize how privileged I was to have my dad at all my games. He worked so hard so that I could play sports and for that I am so grateful. My dad taught me how to be a great husband. I remember him bringing my mom flowers all the time, something that I have tried to do as well. My dad would bend over backwards for my mom, treating her the way she ought to be treated. My dad taught me how to be a strong and worthy priesthood holder. I will never forget they day when my dad gave me the Melchizedek priesthood. He was always ready to give me a blessing whenever I needed one. A week before my mission just me and my dad went and did a session at the salt lake temple. He was so great to be in the house of the Lord with my father, how grateful I am that he taught me how to worship my savior. Thank you dad for all that you have done for me in my life, you will always be my hero, I love you!


Sadly this is the most recent picture I have with my dad. I'm sure my siblings would agree what a great father we have


This was my dads birthday present to himself, to come hold caleb.
