Hugh Clark

Dan Miller

cranky canoeist
Staff member
Debbie Darga informed me today that Hugh Clark passed away on June 10. The WCHA has lost a stalwart member.
 
Hugh has been sadly missed at Annual Assembly for the past few years.
For anyone who attended Annual Assembly up to a few years ago, and for many years before, Hugh carved the canoe name pins for every participant. He also carved many multi-caricature walking canes, "Paddle to the Sea" replicas, Canoemas ornaments, etc.

Sad news.RIP Hugh Clark
 
Sad news indeed. Hugh was a fine person and an important part of this organization. Yet another reminder of how much the WCHA feels like a family - one spread across time and vast geography. Paddle on, Hugh, paddle on...
 
Hugh was always a delight to encounter at the Assembly. Glad I have one of his wonderful canes and a great collection of his little canoes! Every time I see that cane it brings a smile to my face. A sad loss to a great organization.
