Walter Stark, Proprietor Of Pine Point Resort At Elkhart Dies At Home This Morning
Elkhart Lake – (Special) – The many friends and acquaintances of Walter Stark, 66, proprietor of Pine Point resort here, were greatly saddened today when they learned that he had died at his home here this morning, after being confined to his bed for a week with an illness from which he had been suffering for years. Mr. Stark, whose friends can be found all over the United States, was born in Bart Zoden, Germany, on April 21, 1870. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Stark, and in 1893 he came to America for a visit at Milwaukee. He was so impressed with America that he decided to remain in this country, and for some time he was chef in the La Salle hotel in Chicago. Then for many years he was diet chef at St. Luke's hospital in Chicago.
In 1899, together with George Diefenthaeler, he bought Pine Point resort here. Mr. Diefenthaeler died after the first season, and after that Mr. Stark, Mrs. Diefenthaeler, and her daughter, Mrs. E. A LaBudde, operated the resort until 1907, when Mr. Stark bought out the Diefenthaeler interest. In 1922 Mr. Stark sold the resort to A. F. Guignet, who operated it until 1928, when the former took possession of it again and has been the proprietor ever since.
Mr. Stark was married to Mrs. Helen Greve on March 26, 1913. He was a member of the Elkhart Lake Civic Association. He is survived by his widow; one daughter, Mrs. Phillip Z???? of Nekoosa; two sons, Waldo and August at home; two sisters, Mrs. Elizabeth Stadelmeve and Mrs. Sophia Riegel, both of Germany; five brothers, August and Louis both of Crystal Lake and Anton, Adolph and Hans of Germany and one grandchild.
The funeral services will be held Monday at the Raeder Funeral Home, and an old friend, the Rev. ???? who is visiting in Chilton will officiate at the service.
