William Franklin Clark, our beloved husband, dad, brother, grandpa, and friend, passed away peacefully on May 26, 2011 at his home surrounded by his family as he wished.

Bill was born in Salt Lake City, Utah on September 20, 1935 to Leonard and Pearl Clark. Bill came from a family of six siblings who always showed a lot of love for each other.

Bill loved to dance, and met his sweetheart, Margaret Baca, at a rec-center dance. Bill married Margaret on July 11, 1955. Together they raised five children. In 2005, they excitedly celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary at St. Patrick's Catholic Church.

Bill loved spending time with his family; especially taking them hunting, fishing and camping. One of his favorite pastimes was knocking back a few beers and singing joyously around the campfire. He could also whistle a great tune.

Never missing work, he enjoyed being employed as a machinist for the majority of his life. After retiring, Bill liked going to Wendover to play the tables. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

He is survived by his wife Margaret, children Diana Bird (Duane), Debbie Sheets (Ray), Nancy Almanza (Saul), Bill Clark, and John Clark. He was very proud of his grandchildren: Joseph, Razor, Derrick, Samantha, Saul, Amber, and Courtney. Preceded in death by parents.

A funeral mass will be celebrated on Wednesday at 11:00 a.m. in Saint Patrick Catholic Church, 1040 West 400 South. A vigil service will be held on Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. at Neil O'Donnell and Sons Mortuary, 372 East 100 South, where friends may call from 6:00-7:00 p.m.
Committal: Mount Calvary Catholic Cemetery, 4th Avenue and T Street.
