That Starr Calvert was my dad. He died in June 1994, in Seattle. He had major struggles
with alcoholism which worsened in the 80s (when he dropped out of site, thus assumptions
that he might have died then) and resulted eventually in his death in 1994. He was born in
Seattle in 1934 to Starr Calvert Sr. and Katherine McLean Calvert.
The existence of an other Starr Calvert is a curiosity to me as well - there was a third
Starr Calvert in the Seattle area when I was a kid (in addition to my father and
grandfather.) My dad was named for his father, who was named for his mother, Edna Starr. I
doubt my grandfather was a completely faithful guy, and I always kind of wondered if there
might not be a story there about why there was another Starr. However, I have no idea, and
no disrespect is meant to the family of the other Starr if they were to see this! It was
just such an odd name that I had to wonder.
