Meet Robert Clarke, Monika Clarke’s Father

On Father’s Day 2018, Monika celebrated her dad in a lengthy post. She wrote, “Although #FathersDay isn’t until later this year in Australia, this is my first Father’s Day in the US. And it’s one I wish I could spend with my dad. I was born on Father’s Day in 1991. I guess mommy gets tired of buying you new socks! I am the daughter of a Missionary, a Milkman, a man who set an example of how a man should love a woman. A simple man who worked hours I couldn’t even imagine working, all for his family.”

Monika added, “I inherited your stubbornness and ability to talk about a topic for hours on end. You gave me strength in life and tough skin. You pushed me to keep going and work harder during times when I wanted to give up. When you didn’t have much, you continued to give so much to others, even if it was the shirt on your back.”

“But most of all, the love you showed my mother, has been the biggest mark on my life. You lived by example and I am truly blessed to call you Dad. And even though I only get to see you occasionally, you are always the voice in my head, guiding me through this journey called life,” she concluded.

Robert is said to have worked at Mallee Milk Delivery and preached at church.
