Rex Stark
118 McRae Drive
Mr. Stark said he and his wife are members of the Fellowship of the Holy Spirit church, but his wife attends services more regularly than he does. Stark said he suffers from unspecified health issues that often disrupt his sleep, which prevents him from attending services as often as his wife would like.
Stark noted that those health issues are why he was awake early Easter Sunday morning and heard Wendell Martinson leave for the church a little before 5:00 a.m. When asked if he actually saw Martinson leaving, Stark clarified that he heard a car that sounded like Martinson's start up and drive away, and Stark assumed it was Wendell Martinson.
