On March 10th, 2025, Aaron Joseph Stark (43) left a hole in the hearts of everyone that knew
him, when he succumbed to his battle with MS and PTSD. Though his time with us was far too short, we find comfort in knowing that his suffering has come to an end. In the silence of his absence, we are reminded that he is now free—free from pain, free from the struggles he faced, and free to embrace the peace that he so rightfully deserves. His spirit lives on in the love he gave, and though our hearts ache, we take solace in the thought that he is at rest, surrounded by the peace he always sought. He was loved by so many and will be greatly missed.
Aaron was born to Susan Fereday and Arthur Stark on January 22,1982 in Provo Utah. He was
a smiling curious young boy who always had a twinkle his eye that left you wondering what he
was up to. He had the largest heart and would help anyone in need, he could talk to anyone
and everyone but most of all he was fiercely protective of those he loved. He loved collecting animals and always had a dog and/or cats. He had a unique sense of humor and loved to tease his siblings and nieces and nephews.
He was naturally athletic and played basketball, football and baseball throughout school. At the
age of 17 he received his GED and signed with the National Guard. During his time of service,
he completed 2 tours with his unit the 1st Battalion 211th Aviation to the Middle East for Operation Enduring Freedom. He was proud to be a veteran that had a great love for America, our freedoms and what it stands for. After retiring from the National Guard, he was a jack of all trades working primarily in fabrication and plumbing, however, there wasn’t much he couldn’t figure out how to do.
In 2010 he became a father to Gamble. He was a devoted father that shared his passions
of fishing, shooting, Jeeps, and love of America. He loved watching him play sports and was
proud of his accomplishments and the young man he is.
Aaron leaves behind his son Gamble Stark, his parents Susan (Andre) Fereday, Arthur (Sharon)
Stark, his siblings Amy (Mark) Owens, Art (Yan) Stark, Alan (Emily) Stark, Laura (Cameron)
Dory, his stepsiblings Riley Whiteman, Cameron (Kate Diane) Whiteman, and Emily (Kyle)
Crozier, along with his many nieces and nephews that he loved fiercely.

Sue, we are sorry to hear about your loss. Our prayers are with you at this difficult time. Dan and Lesa
So very sorry for your loss. A beautiful tribute to his life! Keeping Gamble and your family in our hearts and prayers.
My heart goes out to the family. So many are being taken too soon. He was a character I will always remember about high school. From sports, to comedy, to a very loving heart, he will be missed.
Aaron is my cousin and was a joy to play with as a kid. He taught me how to catch crawdads in the river. Some of my best summers were spent with Aaron and Bubba (Alan) running around outside catching crawdads and hanging out together at Lake Powell. May he have found his peace.
I only knew Aaron for a short time but he left an impact on me I will never forget. RIP Aaron, I hope you found your peace and comfort that you longed for. Condolences to his family alerting this difficult time.
Susan, I so sorry to hear about your son. My heart goes out to you and your family. Much love Terry McCullough

Aaron was one of my closest friends. He was a good man, father and himan. So sorry for your loss. He leaves a feeling of loss in my heart too. I'll miss you brother.
Even though I personally didn’t know Aaron well but heard what he was up to often by Sue. Sue loved to share information about her kid’s and grandkid’s! She loves her family more than anything else besides “ Our Lord and Savior”. I am so sorry for your loss and praying for your family.
Rest up Brotha man! We will meet again!
