OBITUARY: Paonia: March 15, 1923

   Isaac Clark was born in Jacksonville, Ohio, January 4, 1845, and departed 
this life March 10, 1923.  At the age of six he moved with his parents to 
Chillicothe, Iowa, and in that town grew to manhood.  On the second day of 
February, 1865, he was united in marriage to Amanda Buchanan of Ottumwa, 
Iowa.  To them eight children were born.  In 1877 the family moved to Leon, 
Iowa, where he remained until 1907.  In that year he came to Paonia and here 
he made his home until his death.

   In 1915 the community event was the celebration of the golden wedding of 
Mr. and Mrs. Clark.  He leaves to mourn, besides a brother at Chillicothe, 
Iowa, two sons, George A. and Charles W. Clark and one daughter, Mrs. A.O. 
Stucker, all of Paonia, and twelve grandchildren and three 
great-grandchildren, besides a host of friends.

   Funeral services were conducted from the home of George A. Clark Sunday 
afternoon at 2:30 by the Rev. Mr. E. G. Morse, pastor of the Community 
Church, after which the body was tenderly laid at rest in the Bethleham 
cemetery.

    "He bade no one a last farewell,
         He said goodbye to none;
      The Heavenly Gates were open
         And a loving voice said, 'Come!"
      And with farewell unspoken
         He gently entered Home".
