DAVID DOUGLAS CLARK Dave was born to Robina and David Clark on February 10, 1930 in Detroit, Michigan, but he always considered himself a "Kauai Boy," having come to the islands when he was 3 years old. He attended Punahou School, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and Pierce School of Agriculture. He also served two years in the U.S. Navy. Dave married Sheila Brown of Hilo in 1954. Dave worked for Theo H. Davies/Pacific Machinery for 35 years on Kauai and the Big Island. His extensive knowledge of heavy equipment and his love of people enabled him to successfully sell machinery to sugar plantations, contractors, ranchers and farmers throughout the islands. Dave contributed to Hawaii through many organizations including the Rotary Club, Red Cross, Girl Scouts, Hawaiian Sugar Planters' Association, Hawaii Cattlemen's Association, Honolulu Humane Society, Punahou Alumni and others. Dave is survived by his companion and partner Joan Rohlfing of Honolulu; his three children David John "D.J." Clark (Katty) of Mercer Island, WA, Heather Johnson (Doug) of Anchorage, AK, and Mary Kay Alexander (Brian) of Eugene, OR, and their mother Sheila B. Clark of Mt. View, HI. He is also survived by four grandchildren: Peter & Delaney Clark and Austin & Grace Johnson. Dave passed on December 27, 2015 in Honolulu at age 85. Per his wishes, private family services will be held at a later date. Gifts in his memory may be sent to Punahou School or YMCA of Honolulu.
