Dear Jeff & Family,

We are very saddened to learn of your father's passing. We just found out and are very sorry that we missed his funeral. In reading such tremendous and most impressive history stories of your father, our country was so unbelievably blessed to have such a brave and honorable man helping our wounded soldiers and fighting so hard for our freedom, Wow! Even on his return home, all of his continual efforts, dedications, and contributions toward so many causes were...

May he rest in peace knowing he did his job, and did it great. Because of him and his brothers in arms we sleep in our warm beds and can hug our children in one arm while providing them with food in the other. Thank you Mr Starck for what you did for this country and your family.

OUR SYMPATY TO FAMILY AND FRIENDS

Margie, I am so sorry for your loss. I have only known you for a short time through the Red Hat Society. You have a so much to be proud of in your husband Gordy. May God Bless & Keep You in HIS Care.

My condolences to the Starck family. I am 68 myself and now read the Obits regularly. I don't recall reading a life story as remarkable as his. What were the odds he would have survived all of those famous battles? And then lead such a full and productive life? Amazing, simply amazing. I have posted his obituary on the notice board at my workplace so my colleagues can read his story. I recommend to the Journal Sentinel that an article be printed. I never met Mr. Starck and did not know of him...

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of Mr. Starck, please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers at this sad time. May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
