Mr. Ezra Clark Jr.

Ezra first attended Sara Mohammed school at the age of four where learned Arabic. At the age of six, the family moved to Dallas where he then attended Royal Haven Baptist School. They then moved to Duncanville after three years where he attended Central Elementary. Following their three years in Duncanville, the family then moved to Lancaster, TX where Ezra attended Lancaster High School and graduated in May of 1992. His first job out of high school was with Comp USA. During his time working customer service, he learned how to make computers.

Ezra attended Houston Southern University for two years and then came home to study at UT Arlington however, his heart and passion was for Rap and so he left UT Arlington and attended the Art Institute to learn audio production. He pursued his passion for 12 years and was offered contracts to which he turned down. He felt as though people were waiting to take advantage of young artists. He realized that the Rap industry came with a lot of consequences. It was this realization that sparked his career change; leading him to I.T Engineering where he hit the jackpot. He was very good with computers. Ezra went back to school and earned an Associate’s degree in Computer Science. He earned three certifications for Cisco and that was exceptional since most people only earned one. In addition, he also earned certifications with Microsoft. Shortly thereafter, Ezra was employed by Chase where he began learning from their staff.

The company Ezra had been working for at the time of his passing would describe him as their “All Star Running Back”. He served 6 ½ years on their team. He leaves to cherish his memories, Ezra and Diane Clark (parents), Dykema West (sister), Ja Nathan Clark Hill, Alexander West, Mark III (nephews), Gladys Hunter, Lillie Clark, Janie Sanders and Frances Powell (aunts), Willie B Clark and John B Clark Sr. (uncles), and a host of cousins, friends, and coworkers.
