More detail on this person: Mike Stark, July
31, 1946 - April 4, 2008. Those of us who knew
Mike Stark, better known as "the Colonel" or
"Falcon 6," are not feeling sorry for him or his
family as much as we are feeling sorry for
ourselves, because we will no longer share his
extraord-inary company. That is perhaps the best
indication of the quality life, one that gave so
much pleasure to others. Mike was a man of
substance, a man with an insatiable curiosity, and
a man who had a passion for life. He is survived
by his two sons, John and Jason; his loving wife,
Cindy; his sister Susie and brother-in-law, Steve
Young; his brother, Robert; and sister, Jayne.
Mike had a distinguished military career and
retired as Lieutenant Colonel from the U.S. Army.
Mike's remarkable life will be remembered by
everyone who ever met him. He will be greatly
missed. A private service will be held at a later
date. In celebration of Mike's life, donations can
be made to: The Veterans of Foreign Wars of the
U.S., North Maple Street, Post 5095, Cobra Fund,
East Hampton, CT 06424.
