IN MEMORIUM :BOARD MEMBERS WHO HAVE PAST

 STAN HART

STAN HART, PICTURED ABOVE AND ABOVE LEFT, WAS A FREQUENT INSTRUCTOR AT THE AWA SUMMER CAMP,  HAD A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR AND TRAINED DILIGENTLY FOR 40 YEARS. HE WAS THE BIGGEST BEATLE FAN I HAVE EVER KNOWN AND AS A MUSICIAN IN HIS EARLY YEARS , HE PLAYED GUITAR FOR THE OHIO EXPRESS. STAN HAS ALWAYS BEEN A RESPECTED MARTIAL ARTIST WHO CARRIED A HUMBLENESS ABOUT HIM. STAN AND I USED TO DO SEMINARS IN CANADA TOGETHER AND HE ALWAYS LEFT THE CROWD WITH MORE KNOWLEDGE THAN THEY COULD USUALLY RETAIN. HE ALSO ALWAYS LEFT THEM WITH  PAINFUL REMINDERS THAT GOOD STRIKING TECHNIQUES ARE THE GIFT THAT KEEPS ON GIVING!

STAN WAS ALSO A GREAT PHOTOGRAPHER, WORKING IN BLACK AND WHITE, NOIR STYLE PHOTOS. HIS KEEN EYE AND ATTENTION TO DETAIL MADE HIS WORKS APPEAR AS IF ANSEL HIMSELF WAS PULLING THE TRIGGER. 

I WILL MISS STAN HART TERRIBLY. WE WERE FRIENDS FOR DECADES AND THE CRATER THAT NOW LIES IN MY SOUL WILL NOT SOON BE FILLED. 

THINKING WARRIOR THOUGHTS MY DEAR FRIEND,

SOKE KEVIN HUUNJIN CULLEN

 The viewing was Wednesday September 12th from 6-8pm , funeral service were Thursday Sept. 13th @ 11am at Munz Pirnstill Funeral Home, 215 N. Walnut in Bucyrus, OH.  

STAN'S OBITUARY IS LISTED BELOW:

MANSFIELD -- Stan L. Hart, 59, formerly of Bucyrus and most recently of Mansfield, died unexpectedly Saturday at MedCentral/Mansfield Hospital.

Stan was born April 24, 1948, in Bucyrus to the late Marvel E. and Ernestine L. (Furniss) Hart, who survives in Bucyrus. He was previously married to Gloria (Buckley) Benschoter.

   

In addition to his mother, Stan is survived by daughter Christie (Andy) Hoy of Gibsonburg; grandchildren Emily, Kameill and Stevie; brother Randy (Renee) Hart of Sandusky; sister Rhonda (Steve) Miller of Chatfield; nieces, nephews and numerous aunts and uncles.

Stan began learning martial arts in high school and continued this as an occupation for the past 40 years. He graduated from Bucyrus High School in 1967 and moved from Bucyrus in 1985. Sensei Hart was a noted martial artist, published in many leading MA publications. He was an instructor's instructor; he taught owners of leading martial arts schools all over the northeast U.S., but mainly in New York and Ohio.

Stan was the instructor and an employee of Ohio State University, Mansfield, teaching an accredited self-defense and karate course. He was also the chief instructor at Marion YMCA and Family Martial Arts Center in Mansfield. Sensei Hart began training in karate in 1964. Sensei Hart was still very active in martial arts and attained the master rank of 8th Dan Black Belt in Okinawan and Japanese Karate. Sensei Hart was the chief instructor for the Shurite Kempo Association and the Hakuda Technique Society.

Sensei Hart will be remembered and missed by thousands of karate students and instructors in Ohio and New York. But he will be remembered mostly for his skill in old karate, and also founding many of the local YMCA and other karate programs in north central Ohio.

Mr. Hart was an avid photographer and most recently became a professional, doing such things as senior pictures.

Funeral services will be at 11 a.m. Thursday in the Munz-Pirnstill Funeral Home with Pastor Nate Myers officiating. Burial will be in Crawford County Memory Gardens. Friends may call at the funeral home Wednesday when the family will receive friends from 6 to 8 p.m. as well as on Thursday one hour prior to the service. Contributions in memory of Sensei Hart may be given to a YMCA in your community.
