Clark Tousley, 84, has gone home, leaving behind a circle of those who loved him.

A life is more than dates on a stone; here is a small portion of his story.

Clark's story began in 1936, and unfolded across the years that followed.

Clark spent his working life as ['banks in Scobey', 'Rechnagel Construction in their office'] — and was, by all accounts, loved by those who knew him best.

Some lives stretch across generations; Clark's was one of these.

Clark Tousley, 84 of Hurley, passed away on November 1, 2020 at the Centerville Care and Rehab Facility. Private Family Memorial Service will be held at 10:00 AM Friday, November 6, 2020 at Hofmeister Jones Funeral Home. Clark was born in Scobey, Montana on July 7, 1936, son to Vaughn and Mildred Tousley. He grew up in Scobey and graduated from Scobey High School. He was married to Arlene Hinderer on June 2, 1958 in Elgin, ND. Together, they loved and raised two children, Bryan and Gerald in Scobey MT. Clark worked many years in the banking business. He worked at banks in Scobey, MT; Carson, ND; Kadoka SD and Viborg SD. He also worked for Rechnagel Construction in their office. He retired in 2010. Clark enjoyed reading and playing cribbage. He really enjoyed spending time with his family and especially the grandchildren. He loved following them in all their sporting events and activities. He also enjoyed gardening and tinkering in his shop. Clark loved dogs and having them around him.
