Nick was born on July 2, 1984 to Gary and Cookie Sparks.\u00a0 He attended Kearney, Mo., schools until age 15 and moved and graduated from Lathrop Schools in 2003.<\/p>\n
Nick is survived by the love of his life, Robin Creason; and two stepsons, Skyler and Hunter Creason. He leaves oldest brother, Andrew “Andy” Sparks and sister- in-law, Summer, of Liberty, Mo., and\u00a0brother, Joseph “Joe” Sparks and sister-in-law, Olga, of Kearney, Mo.;\u00a0 his mother, Cookie Sparks, of Kansas City, Mo.,\u00a0 as well as his father, Gary Sparks and his wife, Connie, of Independence, Mo. Nick is survived by his nieces, Serenity, Josie, Brynlee, Norah and Stella, all who filled his heart with love.\u00a0 Nick loved to participate in family functions and usually spent his time with the nieces. Last but not least, his loyal puppy, Kalli.<\/p>\n
Nick loved the KC Chiefs, and anything sports. He enjoyed all kinds of music, muscle cars, and was a wonderful poet.\u00a0 Nick had our Holy Father within his heart, mind and soul.\u00a0 He could recite Gospel verses for any situation.\u00a0 Nick used the initials TF on many writings. TF stood for True Faith.<\/p>\n
Nick will be missed by all. His sense of humor, and his loving ways, Nick never met a stranger and was a friend to all. He would always say “Mom, you can’t stay mad at me cause I am your Baby Boy!”\u00a0 Nick was correct.<\/p>\n
In lieu of flowers, Nick would want donations to St. Jude Children’s Hospital.<\/p>\n
I SURE MISS YOU SWEETHEART.
\nTIL WE MEET AGAIN,
\nMOM<\/p>\n
There is always an extra level of emotion when a young person is taken too soon It is with great sadness that we send\u00a0 our condolences to the entire Sparks family.

I will always remember Nick’s smile. And his big hugs. His beautiful eyes full of mischief. His was a true loss. My heart goes out to his mother Cookie and his father Gary. His brothers Joe and Andy. To his stepsons and his love. To his little dog who will not understand where Nick has gone and to those precious 5 little nieces who will miss their Uncle Nick.

My most favorite and hilarious memory of Nick was when I was his school resource officer and he decided to sleep in one day and not go to school, being in charge of truancy I contacted his mom who was at work and gave me permission to go in the house to talk to him and when so did he literally jumped out of the second story window and took off! We laughed about that for years and I actually became good friends with his mom too! Nick was a really really good and loving kid but had his own ways of doing things and I can appreciate that as I was the same way as a kid! I have never stopped thinking about this tragic end to his life and hold his entire family in my thoughts, prayers and my heart! Let\u2019s all keep remembering him because he deserves that!!
