Bobby tragically lost his life on Saturday, February 11, 2006 at the young age of 18. Bobby was born on January 1, 1988 and was the youngest son of Bill and Diane Stark. He was a senior at North Canyon High School and was going to graduate in May 2006.
Bobby was a young man who had a talent for making everyone around him feel better. He had a quick and infectious smile that made everyone who met him feel at home. He was as comfortable speaking with 6 year olds as well as 70 year olds.
Bobby had a tremendous love for athletics. He watched every game of the Green Bay Packers, Phoenix Suns and Arizona Diamondbacks. He studied the sports page each morning and memorized statistical information about his favorite teams. His goal was to be a sports announcer. At 12 years old, Bobby won the LIttle Ceasars' Announcer of the Game for the Arizona Diamondbacks.
He is survived by his maternal grandparents Robert and Nancy Hulverson, of Durand, Wisconsin; numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and friends around the nation. He is preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Bill and Gladys Stark of Cudahy, Wisconsin and his uncle Gerry Stark also of Cudahy.
A non-profit foundation has been formed - The Bobby Stark Foundation - for the purpose of providing a yearly scholarship to an indiviual 18-22 yrs old. The scholarship winner will be interviewed and chosen by the directors of the Bobby Stark Foundation.
The scholarship winner will go to a young individual that needs assistance and is the kind of person that is willing to go out of their way to help others - as Bobby did.
