Dumont Clarke Jr. ’34

Monty Clarke, a resident of Asheville, N.C., since 1940 and active in the Farmers' Federation with which his father, Dumont Clarke Sr. 1905, was affiliated, died Sept. 7, 2004, a month before he would have turned 92.

In Asheville he was a member of the First Presbyterian Church, where he was a faithful usher, and a member of the Civitan Club, the Biltmore Forest Country Club, and the Princeton Club of Western North Carolina and Eastern Tennessee, which he served as treasurer. He was active in the congressional campaigns of his brother, James "Jamie" Clarke '39, who died in 1999.

Monty, who never married, is survived by a sister, Phebe Ann Lewis, the widow of our classmate Burdette "Burt" Lewis, who died in 1967, and by a large number of nieces and nephews and their children. To them all the class extends sincere sympathy.
