Former long time Washington College professor, dean, and interim president Garry Clarke died suddenly on Saturday in Chestertown at Shore Medical Center. Professor Clarke led the College’s music department and played a critical role in the Mid-Shore music community, including being the organist at Emmanuel Church and chair of the Washington College Concert Series.
