Dino Anthony Starn, 65, of Millville, New Jersey (formerly of Landisville), passed away peacefully on March 19, 2026, at his daughter’s home, surrounded by his loving family.

Born in North Carolina, Dino was raised and educated in New Jersey, where he spent the majority of his life and built lasting connections with family and friends.

Dino was a skilled tradesman who worked as a painter, concrete finisher, and heavy equipment operator in the construction industry. He took pride in his work and was known for his strong work ethic and hands-on abilities.

Outside of work, Dino truly enjoyed life. He loved boating, water skiing, fishing, and hunting, and even had a passion for flying planes. Most of all, he cherished the time he spent with his daughter, Nicolette, and his grandchildren, who meant everything to him.

Dino is survived by his beloved daughter, Nicolette Starn; his step-son, Lawrence “Butch” Sweigart, of New Jersey; his step-daughter Terri Sweigart, of New Jersey; his brother, John Starn, Sr., of New Jersey; his sister, Audrey M. Starn Davis, of New Jersey; his uncle, Paul J. Annello of Landisville, New Jersey; grandchildren Kaylee, Isaac, and Brysonn, and nieces, nephews, and cousins.

He was predeceased by his wife Helen (Boyte, Sweigart) Starn of Buena, Millville and Vineland, New Jersey; and predeceased by his grandparents, John and Concetta Annello of Landisville, New Jersey, and Edwin Romain Starn, Sr., and Thelma (Wolf) Starn of Linwood and Vineland, New Jersey; his mother, Elizabeth Annello Starn Crescenzo of Landisville, New Jersey; his father, Edwin Romain Starn, Jr., of West Palm Beach, Florida (formerly of Linwood and Vineland, New Jersey); his brother, Edwin “Michael” Starn of Landisville and Vineland, New Jersey; and his nieces, Jacquelynn Christina Starn of Millville, New Jersey, and Valerie Ann Starn (Taylor) of Hammonton, New Jersey.

Dino will be remembered for his strength, his personality, and the way he lived life on his own terms. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him. As many would say—he was a character, for sure.

Funeral services will be held privately at the convenience of the family. Memories of Dino and condolences for his family may be shared on his tribute wall.
