Timothy D. Bouska Wright
MULVANE — Timothy D. (Bouska) Wright, 21, college student, died Friday, Oct. 15, 2004. Service will be at 2 p.m. today, Oct. 21, 2004, at Smith Mortuary, Derby. Tim is preceded in death by grandparents Frank J. and Christine Bouska and Orr C. Wright. His parental great-grandparents, the Shaw/Huff families from Nebraska were of English and Irish heritage. His maternal great-grandparents, Vopat/Lovci from Wilson, were of the Austrian lineage and the Bouska/Hoch families of Bohemia. Tim attended Calvary Chapel Christian, Sunrise Christian Academy, Mulvane High School, St. John’s Military Academy, Salina, and finished his senior year at Metro Blvd. High School, where he was awarded student of the month for self-discipline. During his senior year he worked with the United Methodist Urban Ministry and Catholic Charities of downtown Wichita. He began college in the fall of 2003 at Emporia State and wanted to be a high school history teacher with a background in theatre, but in December 2003 he fell ill. We give special thanks to Shana who (with her proud American Indian heritage) encouraged him to keep trudging on, so with her support in 2004, he enrolled as a sophomore at Butler County Community College of El Dorado. Tim was working part-time as an assistant grill master at the Juke box in Town West for owners Matt and Aubryn and their sons. His many friends will miss his quick wit, sense of humor and his “Peter Pan” attitude toward life in general. Tim said, “he never wanted to grow up.” Last year he stood up in front of the theatre with Shana and said, “I’m just a boy, I just want to have a great adventure! Do I ever have to grow up?” Tim was engaged to Shana Crowe and his plans included joining the Air Force after his college studies. He is survived by parents, Dr. Paul and Janet Bouska Wright of Mulvane, brother Adam Wright, fiancé Shana Crowe, grandmother, Mildred I. Wright, all of Wichita. From the Holy scripture: For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16.
