David Stadden Clark Jr. ’48

Body

DAVID SUDDEN CLARK JR. died May 22, 1990.

Graduating from Haverford School magna cum laude, at Princeton David was a member of Charter Club and majored in history. He was active in the Glee Club and Chapel Choir. He served in the Navy 194446. David's business career began with the Home Insurance Co. in Philadelphia. He later became asst. manager of Johnson & Higgins, insurance brokers in Philadelphia. David had many happy summers on Nantucket and also spent much time at Buck Hill Falls in the Poconos. He was always very proud of his Princeton heritage, and his wry sense of humor served him well in all circumstances.

David is survived by four daughters, Linda, Barbara, Debbie, and Karen, along with five grandchildren, and a sister, Ruthanne Groseclose. Our sympathies go to his family. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him.
