James McGowan was by far the most sophisticated and well-traveled of the "Clark Clan."  He brought a level of style into every situation.  I will always remember him teaching me little phrases in different languages and his sunglasses lapel pin which held, in fact, his sunglasses.  I will remember catching the bouquet at his and my Aunt Marilyn's wedding and how happy he has made her from that day forward.  They made a beautiful life together with Oliver and he will be very much missed.
