Mr. Clark was the choir Master and organist at the Roseville methodist church where I was A member from 1951 to 1970. He was a wonderful man...vastly talented, and even composed some of his own anthems. Graydon was very active in the vaudeville era of Newark's entertainment industry, and he conducted musical fundraisers for the church, using many of the old vaudville routines, Mr. clark was My first piano teacher, and also taught me how to play that wonderful old 3-manual organ at the Roseville Methodist, so that I could fill in for him when he took an occasional and well deserved vacation. When he retired around 1968, to go and live with his brothers in Illinois, he was sorely missed! I loved that guy! We shared a mutual birthday (June 29th), and he would always invite me to Bodholts for an Ice Cream soda, on that day, to celebrate. Thanks for the great memories, and the picture.
