A scholarship fund will be established at Park City High School in the name of Robert Urich, who died earlier this week at a California hospital of cancer. He was 55.
For most of the 1990s, Urich split his time between Los Angeles and a sprawling home in Deer Valley.
Urich and his wife, Heather Menzies, were active in the Utah arts community, raising money to help build the 1,200-seat Eccles Performing Arts Center at Park City High School.
Teri Orr, executive director of the Eccles Center, said Tuesday the high school would establish a scholarship in Urich's name.

"The center probably wouldn't have gotten off the ground without him lending his presence to the effort," Orr said.
