George “Michael” Clark, 89, of Wonder Lake, passed away on June 4, 2022.

Michael was born July 2, 1932, in Lafayette, Indiana to Paul and Mable Clark.  He married the love of his life, Dorothy “Dottie” Clark in 1982 after asking for her hand on their second date.

Michael spent his youth on the family farm and enjoyed hunting and fishing.  He was a Korean War Veteran that often spoke fondly of the friendships he had made during his time as a Marine. Michael graduated from Indiana University where he played Football for the Big 10, later pursuing careers in management and finance.  He loved to entertain and host cookouts with his beloved wife Dottie.  The pair also loved to travel together to places like Las Vegas and Atlantic City.  Fond of storytelling, Michael loved to tell folks about the time that Frank Sinatra gave him a pat on the head, but, the real high light of his live is and always will be his littler angel “Dottie” the love of his life.

He is survived by his wife, Dorothy Clark.

He is preceded by his parents, Paul and Mable Clark; brother Bruce Clark; Aunt Annie Larsen; his favorite cats Fluffy Renee, Tiger Lily and Whitzy D.
