About Hank Clark - 1937-2007
The Oakwood Cemetery Walk lost an amazing talent and a very valuable member of our planning committee when Hank Clark passed away in March of 2007. Hank volunteered as an actor for the our annual event every year since its inception 13 years ago.

Among the people that Hank portrayed were Robert Douglas, early nurseryman; William Besley, Waukegan Brewer; John Williams, lighthousekeeper; and Jeremiah Minsky, schooner captain. The first question that Hank would ask when he selected a character was "Do I need to grow a beard?" The answer was usually yes.

Hank touched the lives of many young people in Waukegan as a teacher and guidance counselor. He was also involved with the Waukegan Community Players and the Bowen Park Theater. He will truly be missed by all.
