Retired Police Officer Kirk Clark, Sr.
Jacksonville, FL
Retired Jacksonville Florida Police Officer Kirk Clark, Sr. is a survivor of a shooting that occurred in 1990. He was on undercover duty at an Arlington Apartment complex working on a drug bust when he was shot 9 times, with 2 bullets lodged in his vest. His partner was killed. After the shooting, Kirk was just existing, waiting to die, when he realized that sadness gets you nowhere. He learned to live with his "new normal", which consisted of pain and disabilities. He wanted to make a difference in the lives of other survivors and their families and the families of those who had lost their lives in the line of duty. He did this through his work with Concerns of Police Survivors.
If you liked hearing Retired Louisiana Trooper Dr. Bobby Smith speak in 2004, then you will love Kirk Clark.

Past Events
The history of the Cape-Atlantic Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Service and Breakfast: On August 8, 1985, NJSP Det. Albert Mallen was gunned down during the execution of a narcotics search warrant. FBI Agent Jack Reemmer and Atlantic City Police Department Captain Vincent Premone thought that police funerals should not be the only time that law enforcement officers gather to honor officers who made the ultimate sacrifice. They concluded that there should be another occasion for them to come together as a unified police community. Together the two men founded the Cape-Atlantic Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Service and Breakfast.
The 200 Club-sponsored annual mass and breakfast embarked on a new tradition in 2001, as the honorees included firefighters and rescue workers as well as police officers. The response to this event was tremendous, as 645 attendees took place in paying tribute to our heroes. The same format was continued in 2002, resulting in a then-record of 766 attendees. A new record of 1,058 was set in 2009 with the appearance of former New York City Mayor and Presidential Candidate Rudy Giuliani.
