Bob and Milly were proud owners of “Stark Farms” on Venice Farm Road from the mid 1960’s to the mid 1990’s. A proud Marine, Bob served in WW2 in the Pacific as a radar technician. He was a friend to all and loved to make people smile with his jokes. He is survived by his loving wife Milly, daughter, Sandy and sisters, Ruth Wall and Helen Scarpantoni. A memorial service will be held at The Tallahassee National Cemetery.
