In 1947, after serving in the Army Infantry in World War II, he moved to

Angeles for instruction in the dry-cleaning business.

On Jan. 29, 1949, he married Ina Faye Evans in Yuma, Ariz., and resided in 
Torrance until they moved to Stallion Springs in 1978. He was a dry-cleaner by 
profession and owned Clark’s Cleaners in Torrance for 30 years. 

He was a member of the Lions Club, VFW and the Moose Lodge here in Tehachapi 
for many years and looked forward to going into the Moose Lodge everyday for 
morning coffee and camaraderie with the Ma Barkers Bunch.

very fond.
