2002 Chrysler Town & Country rear disc brake rotor stuck trick tip

How to remove rear disc brake disc / rotor. Parking brake pads holding or are stuck. Probably the same for Caravan and Voyagers if that Plymouth model still exists. Perhaps there is a special tool to rotate the "star" gear to release the parking brake tight clearance but I could not get to it from the brake rear. So I finally tapped on and drifted the parking brake lever further to the release position and finally got my discs off. Such a pain.
