Michael Stack Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by King-Tears Mortuary, Inc. - Austin on Mar. 20, 2026.
Michael "Marshall" Stack (September 3, 1959 –February 24, 2026)

Michael Stack, known to many as Marshall Stack or simply "Stack," was born on September 3, 1959, in Stuttgart. He passed away peacefully on [date].

Stack was a musician at heart, dedicating much of his life to playing blues guitar. Music was more than a hobby for him-it was his language, his expression, and his connection to the world around him. The blues shaped his sound and reflected the depth and feeling he carried within him.

He had a deep love for Austin, a city known for its vibrant music scene and independent spirit. Austin felt like home to him, a place where his love of music and individuality fit naturally.

He is survived by his daughter, Brannen Stack.

His music, spirit, and the memories he created will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
