'Roy Clark's Celebration Of Life' Memorial To Be Held Wednesday

Plans were announced over the weekend for 'Roy Clark's Celebration of Life' memorial which will be open to the public. The service will be held on Wednesday, November 21 at 11:00am CT at Rhema Bible Church at 1025 W Kenosha St Broken Arrow, OK 74012 near Tulsa.

The service will be streamed at rhema.org as well as on Rhema Bible Church's Facebook Page.

A private, invitation-only visitation for family, friends and fellow performers will take place Tuesday evening. Please call 1-833-537-2911 x800 for time & location.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that all contributions be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. For several years, Clark headlined a golf tournament for St. Jude's, where a floor was named in his honor.

"I see a lot of celebrities come to St. Jude, and you know what's in a person's heart by how they entertain the children," said hospital CEO David McKee. "He was truly touched by the kids, not the cameras."

Clark saw his helping hand as a responsibility. "I've just been so blessed in my life," he said. "It would be a sin for me to sit there and not share it, and not do something to help others."
