To the David Strack family:

I am so sorry about your loss and understand the devastating disease of Alzhiemers. My dad also suffered from this cruel disease before he died in 2005.

I wanted you to know what a special influence Mr. Strack had on so many students he taught. He is one of the few people I can thank for having such a positive influence on me. He made learning fun...and taught me the importance of enjoying life!! He seemed to always have a smile on his...

To the wife and family of Dr. Strack, who I am not suprised earned his doctorate, as I have always referred to him, fondly, as a genius! I was fortunate to have known him and to have had him teach me at Elysian Fields High School in several advanced subjects. I was always amazed at his vast knowledge and ability to understand any algebra problem known to man! While he was a brilliant man and teacher, I have to say he was one of my favorite teachers and as his student, you always knew he...

I am so sorry to hear of Rev. Strack's passing (I say Reverend because that is what my husband called him during our years @ Elysian Fields High School). He was one of my favorite teachers and I am sure he will be greatly missed. I have fond memories of Bro. Strack. He was always a very pleasant teacher and willing to help. Sincerely, Gwen & Dillard Singleton.

I'm so saddened to learn of Mr. Strack's passing. He was a very good man who really wanted the best for those of us who were lucky to have him in class. I know he was determined that I was going to understand math and never let his discouragement that I wasn't a good math student show. I have always felt fortunate that I was given the chance to know him. My sincere condolences to his family.

To the Strack family: Brother Strack was a kind and gentle man who left a impression on me when he was the pastor of the Nazarene church at Portales, N. M. Even now I recall his smile and positive spirit. He was a real soldier of the cross. Our whole family will be praying for peace and strength for you at this loss.

I am so sorry to hear about the death of Mr. Strack. I lived in Elysian Fields throughout my school years, and was in many of his classes. Even as a teenager, I always felt that he was more intent on teaching 'life lessons' than 'school lessons'. I remember groups of us attending his church several times, really just because we liked him. It makes me laugh to think of the time that all of us in his class pitched in on his birthday and bought him a duck. We all thought a duck would really...

I was very sorry to hear about the loss of Mr. Strack. I can't think of my years at Elysian Fields High School without thinking of Mr. Strack very fondly. He was kind enough to give me a job cleaning the camp when I needed college money. He was always trying to get us to think outside the box. He was a sweet man and he will be missed. The Strack family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
