Stark Family,

As you are all aware, I have been on assignment for the last couple of months and was only able to check in on Mr. Stark in bi-monthly increments at best. Words cannot even begin to describe my sincerest joy at Mr. Stark’s progress, to endure what this man has endured and what he will continue to endure epitomizes what we in the Air Force call the “Warrior Ethos.”

Today was my first day back to work and I received the goodie basket provided by your amazing family. The words Thank You falls short of summing up my sincerest appreciation. The Running for Mortals book was a nice touch as I enjoy reading John Bingham’s entertaining articles in Runner’s World. Somehow you all made the time and effort to put these amazing baskets together while working your respective jobs and taking care of a man that I’ve come to know (through your entries), respect and admire.

There isn’t a day that I don’t think about Mr. Stark, especially on my long runs. His Die Hard attitude is an inspiration for athletes of all levels and ages. I give you my word that I will put all of the goodies to use. Although as Christians, I doubt you’ll approve of my choice in music for the iPod

I am glad to see you are doing good. I was floored that I found you and Jeremy. Then I read what had happened to you and I really did feel glad to find you. You look good, heck I actually had to id Jeremy first cause well that guy never did change. You look younger and well you are not as tall as I remember but then again I wasn’t very big. As soon as I found your site I let my dad and brother know so you might get some posts from them as well. I hope you get back to me when you can, you can catch me at my work email “Michael_Rivera@Countrywide.com” or H3ADR3DN3CK@Gmail.com obviously one is business the other is not. I am on myspace as well you can see pictures of me and my family. I hope to hear from you and Jeremy soon.

Tym and family,

Jeremy, thank you again for keeping the blog current! It’s always nice to be able to check in and hear how everything is going– it’s like dropping in for a quick cup of coffee.

Tym, you’re making such great progress and doing so much recovery work. I know that some days it probably seems all up hill and like you aren’t progressing very rapidly, but from outside looking in, you’re making remarkable progress. YAY!

Hello Tym,
We hope you have a good week-end. The change will be excellent. St Jude does amazing things, my sister was there as well. We have nothing but admiration and love for you dear friend.
Prayers that the blue days are short lived…the depression. You are in God’s SOVEREIGN hands, and he rules. We can see him working week after week. You are a MIRACLE, and that means God has very special plans for your life. There is NO DOUBT he will bring you the desires of your heart. A testimony is being written by our creator, for you to tell all.
Rest in the comfort and warmth on HIS HANDS.
We will call to see when we can take you to dinner next week/week-end.
Our love and prayers. We are just giving God the glory for all he will do for YOU. God bless all of your family…
We LOVE them too, as our Savior does also !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
