Tyler Wood Clark Jr.

He entered the US Navy on December 8, 1952 and retired after 20 years of service to his nation on September 29, 1972 while residing in Garden Grove, CA.

After moving to Anza, CA he held several jobs and volunteered as a math teacher aid at Hamilton Elementary School. While residing in Anza, he was fortunate enough to obtain a position as a Radiology Assistant at Eisenhower Medical Center in Rancho Mirage, CA. After 17 years of service, he retired from the Medical Center on the last day of the 20th century while living in Palm Desert, CA.

He resided in Oceanside, CA with his wife of 45 years Betty Clark. Their only child Tracey Wyndell Clark also resides in Oceanside along with his wife Tamara, granddaughter Ashleigh, and grandson Tyler. Both grandchildren were the light in his eyes. He got them up every weekday morning, cooked their breakfast, and helped them get ready for the day. Then he would take them to his home where he and Betty homeschooled them.

His love for life and people showed as he followed statements from the Laws of the Boy Scouts of America: Faithful, Loyal, Honest, Trustworthy, and Belief in God, just to name a few. He was involved with the Boy Scouts of America for over 30 years, starting as an Assistant Cub Master with the newly organized Cub Scout Pack 1 of Anza, CA. in 1982. His proudest project was establishing Pack 7146 thru the American Legion Post 146 of Oceanside and the assistance of Calvary Baptist Church of Oceanside.

He also gave to his fellow veterans by serving the America Legion Post 146 of Oceanside as 1st Vice Commander for two years among many things.

He will be missed by his family and many many dear friends he had made over the years.
