Clark's health has been in decline since suffering a stroke in 2004. Before that, Clark was struggling with Type 2 diabetes.

thank you mr clark for your charm, smile and love of music that helped make this country a better place. my mother especially was sad to hear of his passing, for her he was a contemporary(she's 80) she had emigrated to this country just around the time he started his career and for someone who didnt speak english as a first language he was a cultural ambassador bringing some of the best of america into her life.

Please extend condolences to Mark from a fellow Oregonian and huge fan of the Raiders and WTAI.

Hey, I sure will. Didn't know you were from Oregon---Mark was born in Eugene...I know Dick was not in the best of shape---he had diabetes as well as struggling with the effects of the severe stroke of '04, but this was still really unexpected---out of left field. Sad

Haven't heard anything about a public memorial yet. There is to be no funeral....and Mark has been strangely silent since Clark's death. Undecided

Alice Cooper On Dick Clark

Posted on April 18, 2012 by gearsofrock
Alice Cooper remembers the iconic American Bandstand host Dick Clark in a statement on AliceCooper.com:

“I used to come home from elementary school to watch American Bandstand. It had all the new songs, all the new dances, and it had the happiest guy in the world presenting them to you. I had no idea that later in my career I would know Dick Clark on a professional level. I ran into him some years ago, and he said to me “Hey Coop, if you had your own radio show, what would it be like?” I told him it would be more like the free form FM stations of the 60’s, where the DJ’s actually played what they liked and demographics didn’t play a role. He said ‘Alice, why don’t you do it then?’. Just like that, my radio show Nights With Alice Cooper was born. It’s been 9 years later and I’m still on the air! And let me just add that NOBODY loved rock n roll more than Dick Clark!”
