JOHN F. STACKS

Dear Mrs. Stacks, It´s Freddy, your former doorman. On this tenth anniversary of his passing, I want to let you know that his presence in my life has never wavered. Over the years, whenever Apple released a new iPhone or Mac device, I could see Mr. Stacks´ elated smile. Thank you for allowing me into your lives. Freddy Velasquez

Dear Carol,
We are so sorry for your loss and want you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and Nicole and all of your family at this difficult time. Do hope we can get together sometime in the very near future.
With our love, Barbara and Ray (Hamel)

For me, John was in that league of editors at TIME that represented the Golden Years of the magazine. He was always a gentleman, and I'm sad to hear of his passing.

Carol It is with sadness that I heard of John's death, however it is with gladness that I remember you and he and all the fun he we had with him in your Doolin Ireland house...may I quote W.B Yeats "Before us lies eternity;our souls are love, and a continual farewell"Sincerely thinking of you and Ben Maryangela Keane.

It was my great good fortune to work for John for two years, and he was an exemplary mentor. He taught me things about handling myself and working with others, and I have used those lessons every day since. Thanks again, John. Albest, Jamie Malanowski

On behalf of my classmates in the Yale Class of 1964, I extend condolences to John's family and friends. John had many friends in our class and enriched it over many years. We mourn his passing and will remember him on our Class Website (www.yale64.org) and at a memorial service on campus during our 50th reunion in June 2014. Anthony M. Lavely, Class Secretary

Carol, We will all miss him so much. Such a gentle, funny, loveable, brilliant and talented person. I think I'll especially remember him relaxing in the easy chair by the fire in Ireland, reading or making us laugh with his quiet, witty observations. I am so very sorry, for you and for all of us.
Hearts full of love, Dana & Dick

John was, above all, a gentleman. I remember his playfulness, something that is in too short supply in institutions. John humanized Time for me, blew up its stuffiness, and showed real compassion. When my son died ten months ago I called John -- I had attended a memorial years earlier for his son. John offered me true comfort (rare indeed) and told me how he kept in touch with his son's friends and even played a game of golf with them and bent an elbow with them. Never did he hint that there...
