Border Patrol Agent Stephen Clay Starch

I haven’t ever left a message here, but for those of you who have, I want you to know that your memories of my brother are appreciated by his family. Those of you who knew him personally remember that Stephen love deeply and cared about his brothers and sisters in the border patrol, as well as those individuals who were illegally attempting to come into our country. Stephen never lost sight of upholding the laws that protect the United States, but had great empathy for those who were only trying to make a better life for themselves. Those with ill intent to take advantage of others, or to bring illegal substances across the border were far easier to bring his full force against.

I continue to have significant peace about Stephen’s‘s place with his Savior, Jesus Christ in eternity. I look forward to seeing him again. As many of you know, he spent time in God‘s word the morning of his passing as he did every day.

Retired Border Patrol agent, Aric Curtis has been a great solace to us as well. He was with Stephen that day and continues to uphold his memory with the Border Patrol exceptionally well.

Peace and protection to all of you working to keep our country safe.

Sincerely, David Starch.

Stephen’s brother
