The Indiana officiating community lost a giant yesterday. Todd Clark, a Lafayette veterinarian and 40+ year football official, passed away unexpectedly. Aside from being a multiple state finals football official, Todd was a key member of the observer corps for the last several years, despite being confined to a wheelchair. Todd became well known briefly when he had a heart attack on the field and was successfully resuscitated by the athletic trainers on-site. He continued to officiate for years after his recovery. Todd was a great guy, a former IFOA board member, a valued member of the Western Indiana Officials Association, and a good friend of mine for 20+ years. He will be sorely missed.
