Alton David Clark,,is the memory..
He was always the witness.Never forced anyone to listen to him.
People were drawn to him,and he had
some words, whatever he may be feeling from God,,he passed it on.
He was so kind to everyone.God truly was his first love.To witness that,and be a part of his ministry, was a joy.
All I had to do was listen and I got blesses over and over.I am so glad
He was my friend.
