Richard Gregory Stark, 76, passed away, peacefully, at his South Ogden home on Thursday, 20 September 2018 with his devoted wife, Linda, at his side.
Richard was born on in Passaic, New Jersey, on 23 January 1942 to the late Raymond and Ester (Rodriguez Ayala) Stark. He grew up in Ramsey and Waldwick, New Jersey and took on big responsibilities at a young age. Shortly after graduating from high school, Richard joined the U. S. Air Force at age seventeen.
During his twenty-five-year military career, Richard served in England, where he met and married his first wife, Marina. After being widowed, he served in Viet Nam, where he met and married his wife, Linda. Other tours of duty also included locations in Germany, South Korea, Japan, as well as State-side bases.
Richard loved to fish and spent many hours with his family at Lake Perris, California. He enjoyed darts, key lime pie and playing pinochle. Richard's love of reading was passed to all three of his children and many of his grandchildren. His favorite genre was science fiction and he was a fan of both Star Trek and Star Wars.
Richard's sense of humor was well known and never wavered, even through his cancer treatments and hospitalizations the last six months.
Richard is survived by his wife, Linda; children, Nikki (Larry), Collette (Gary) and Ray (Sarah); seven grandchildren; two great-grandchildren; along with siblings, Patricia, Priscilla, Brian, and Deborah.
Friends may visit with family from 6 to 8 P.M., on Tuesday, 25 September 2018 at Lindquist's Ogden Mortuary, 3408 Washington Boulevard. Graveside services will be held at 11 A.M., on Wednesday, 26 September in the Utah State Veterans' Memorial Park, 17111 South Camp Williams Road, Bluffdale, Utah.
Special thanks to Dr. Brandon Fisher and the staff at the Ogden Regional Hospital Cancer Treatment Center and Dr. Harold Johnson and the staff at McKay-Dee Hospital Intermountain Cancer Center.
