Remembering Mr. Stack today with gratitude for his patience, kindness and service. My favorite teacher, May he Rest In Peace.

Thinking of Mr. Stack on the anniversary of his passing. One of my favorite teachers, he gave me so much confidence in math, I will never forget him. RIP

Mr. Stack was my favorite teacher. Although I didn't know it at the time, his Consumer Math class and his guidance prepared me to be the person I became. Knowing that I would not attend college he directed me to the Coast Guard where I learned a trade. I was able to use what I learned in his class and the military to set up a successful business and apply it to every day life. I feel that I've had a successful life as well as other classmates because of him.

Mr. Stack, FT was the best. If you were lucky enough to take his Consumers Math Class he taught you how to handle your banking affairs, how to read a contract, how to do your basic income tax return, how to manage your money and most of all the things pertaining to your finances that you will use through your life. FT influenced me along with Roland Holloway to enlist in the US Coast Guard which was

Remembering you today, with gratitude that you were one of my teachers. I will never forget coming up to your desk with a question, which I did many times, and you would show me that I was capable of answering it myself. It was a tremendous gift. Thank you, Mr. Stack.

I learned more in his class at Haddonfield Memorial High School than any other class. He was a Fun and Great guy.

Funny to receive this today as I just had a mini reunion with two classmates from HMHS Class of 1963. Skip Coleman and his wife Marylo & Roland Holloway and his wife Claire. Skip, Roland & I had FT's class and we were talking about how much we learned from him. That was last Thursday, 2-22-19. Thank you F.T. You were the Best.

What can be said that hasn't already, F.T., you were One-Of-A-Kind. And Always an Inspiration!
One can only hope HMHS can find another, even if he's only half as fine a Gentleman/Teacher as F.T was!
RIP, Lt.Cmdr. Stack You will be sorely missed!

Mr. Stack was the best math teacher I ever had. It is his influence that lead me to college and gave me such a strong math background. I can see his beautiful face and hear his voice urging us to "factor happily!" I am glad that he had such a full life and send my sympathy to the family.
