Not sure what to say?

Every new year would be ushered in with a phone call from Coach. The years have gone by rapidly but the passage of time has not dulled my love and respect for this kind soul. I think about him often, Doug Roberts

I have many many fond memories of Mike . Mike and Ann were like part of the family. May he continue to rest in peace.

I had the honor of playing baseball for Coach Stark and was searching the internet for a way to call him when I found this obituary. It breaks my heart because I let too much time go by before I tried to find him! Coach was a great man who never forgot anyone that played for him. Years ago I was with my oldest son and we bumped into Coach who told my son about when I played for him, much of which was embellished but it made my son proud. I truly loved this man and want his family to know...

I had the privilege of knowing and working with Mike for a number of years. He was an incredibly devoted employee and a true gentleman. He was always quick with a smile or a joke or an anecdote about sports. I truly enjoyed every interaction I ever had with him. We missed him so much in recent years and it hasn't been the same without him. God is getting a very special person. He will be sorely missed but we should celebrate a life very well lived. God bless.

I had the privilege of knowing Mike Stark in two very different contexts and stages of life. Mike was my fiery and successful varsity basketball coach in the early 60's at Nottingham High School where I "warmed the pines" from the near end of the bench and never questioned his playing time coaching decisions. Many years later Mike would regularly stick his head in my door at Hancock Estabrook law firm to say hello, always with a smile. I forgave him for his inaccurate assertions that he had...

He was our uncle Mike all our life! A wonderful, smiling ,happy man. He was also very kind and very humble. May he rest in peace with God, and his best friend George, who is been waiting for him. Love and strength to the family. Love always, Dena

Words are really not adequate at a time like this. Just want you to know that I'm offering my sincere condolences for your loss. May God watch over you and give you strength and peace. You will see him again!
So much love,
Pat

Always a firm handshake, a smile and a kind word is how I will remember Mr. Stark. My condolences to all the people who's lives and hearts he touched.

May his memory be eternal. My sympathies to the Stark family.
