Stanley Martin Stark

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.

I miss you already my amazing neighbor next door. I will forever regret not getting to know you better than I did. You inspired me in just the short time we shared the fence you built. I will always remember you and you will never be forgotten. I loved the stories we talked about

Stan lived across the street from my parents. When he was making his record-breaking kayak trip down the Mississippi River, they began following him in the news and on social media. They became very good friends, and Stan would often just "pop in" to visit and chat, including when I was there visiting. It´s cliché to say someone "lights up a room," but he truly did. Such a warm, friendly, positive gentleman who radiated goodwill. I know he is missed greatly by his family and probably more friends than he probably even knew he had. RIP, Stan.
