A celebration of Marge’s life will be held Monday, November 24, 2014 at the Ashmore United Presbyterian Church, 203 South Illinois Street, in Ashmore, Illinois. Reverends Drew Holloway and Maureen Clark will officiate the service honoring her life. Marge Stark was the fourth of six children, born to the hardworking Black Hawk County, Iowa farm family of George and Lucy (Platt) Glasener on December 13, 1925. Discipline and work were Marge’s middle name. Her biggest personal challenge was her stuttering. This was so severe that she frequently struggled even to say hello when answering the phone. This may have discouraged many people; however, Marge worked through this challenge with professional help, thus inspiring us all in dealing with adversity. From her early childhood days of tending to the asparagus field on the farm, Marge learned that the dirt under her fingernails and a love of growing plants were her earthly connection to God. She loved her church and prayed daily for everyone who touched her life. Marge never sat still. There was always work to be done. Her house was immaculate. She walked daily for exercise and to collect litter along Lover’s Lane. For respect of God’s earth, Marge made sure that the litter was recycled. There were always projects to be done. Rugs to be braided, lap quilts to be made, hats to knit, flowers to be arranged. With each stitch, Marge said a loving prayer for the recipient. For 50 years her P.E.O. sisters were very important to Marge. She worked on projects, socialized, conspired, and shared the joys and sorrows of life with these special friends. Marge married Russ Stark on June 25, 1948. Marge and Russ touched many lives in their 50 years of ministry with the Presbyterian Church USA. Russ preceded Marge in death on November 22, 2011. Marge’s survivors include sons: Ric Stark of Ocean View, HI, Jeff Stark of Storm Lake, IA, Dick and Lucy Stark of Charleston, IL; six grandchildren and their families, Katie and Jason Crichton (Maggie, Charlie, Ethan), Dan Stark and Sarah Peterson, Chuck Stark and Wendy Clinard (Sophia), Kelly and Ryan Lawrence (Noah, Eli), Ryan Stark, Mike Stark; a sister, Ann and Gene Hultman; a sister Alice Glasener; a brother-in-law, Glenn Stark; and a sister-in-law, Joann Kerkove. In addition to her parents and husband Marge was preceded in death by a sister, Hattie Eslinger and two brothers, Bill and Dale Glasener. (Adams Funeral Chapel Nov/2014)
