Thomas D. Clark

Kentucky lost a great man this morning with the passing of Thomas D. Clark.

By the flip of a coin, Thomas Dionysius Clark intertwined his life and career with the vast history of Kentucky. In 1928, Clark received scholarships to both the University of Cincinnati and to the University of Kentucky. Kentucky won the coin toss, and the claim to one of the South’s greatest historians.

That coin flip gave Kentucky one of her greatest adopted sons and provided future Kentucky historians a wealth of information through his research and staunch support for Kentucky’s library system.

Rest in Peace Dr. Clark.

If no one else understand’s this statement I’m sure he would… Here’s a Half Horse – Half Gator for you sir.
