I talked with Starr's son, Starr, Jr., this morning. Hopefully he will be able to give us more details about his dad...


While flying for the FTL, Starr was the pilot transporting CNAC folks to different locations for reunions.

Recently, give or take 10 or 20 years, Starr starting attending the reunions at the Embassy Suites in Burlingame, California.
In this effort he drew very colorful names tags for attendees while greeting folks at the welcome sweet on the 2nd floor.
