Tanner, Clark L.
Clark Lindquist Tanner, 66, died peacefully of pneumonia on February 12, 2005
at Avalon Valley Rehabilitation Center. Clark was born on October 26, 1938 a
son of Norman Clark and Barbara Lindquist Tanner. As a young man he had strong
passions for hiking, climbing, skiing, music, and philosophy. He was an avid
reader and lover of books. He graduated from Olympus High School and the
University of Utah with a degree in philosophy. He joined the Coast Guard
Reserve and was trained in the San Francisco area. Unfortunately, in early
adulthood he was afflicted with schizophrenia from which he suffered the rest
of his life. As a young man, Clark loved climbing in the Wasatch, Uinta,
Teton, and Wind River Mountains. He successfully climbed peaks in the Alps,
including Mt. Rosa and the Matterhorn. Clark's relationship in his early
adulthood with Linda Daniels English was surely one of the greatest gifts in
his life. Clark will be remembered by his family and friends for his bright
mind and memory, his sense of humor, and his committed spirit which helped him
stay alert and interested in events of the world in spite of his mental
illness. Clark is survived by his parents, Norman and Barbara Tanner of Salt
Lake City, his sisters, Susan T. Chapman of Denver, Deon T. Hilger of Santa
Fe, and Deb Sawyer of Salt Lake City, and his nephews and nieces. The family
wants to thank all the people who helped make Clark's life as rich and full as
possible given his mental illness. In particular we want to thank the staff at
Valley Mental Health, especially Jona Nusink-Curry, Drs. Ted Wander and Marge
McCoy, the staff at Hillside Rehabilitation Center, Bonnie Thornock, the staff
of Harmony Home Health, the staff at Avalon Valley Rehabilitation Center, Lois
Brandreit, and the staff of the restaurants Clark enjoyed including Kyoto,
L'Avenue, Marie Callender's, and the Paris. We also want to thank the people
at the Salt Lake City Library and Sam Weller's Book Store for the ir patience
and kindness in helping Clark with all the books, articles and essays he
always ordered. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the Salt Lake
City Library or Valley Mental Health. Family and friends plan to gather to
remember Clark at a date in June as yet undecided. Funeral under the direction
of Lindquist's Bountiful Mortuary e-mail condolences to
