I just recently found out of his passing. I knew him when i worked at the Sheraton Meadowlands Hotel ..he was alway taking photos for our brochures etc..so kind and goofy, funny. Always trying to cheer everyone up and had a kind word to say. Always gave me ideas for work.
He even offered to take (and did) a photo of my Grandma when she turned 100. I still have that wonderful photograph if my Grandma Irene.

Steve was a long time mentor, an uncle to my two boys and a beloved friend of over a decade. We shared so many fun times on jobs, at the Ren Fair, in Manhattan and even Sunny Las Vegas!
Working side by side with him always kept things interesting. We fought, we laughed, we hugged, like family because he WAS family to me.
We always looked out for each other through the good and bad. He never complained when he felt sick. Instead, he always cracked a joke or turned the topic back to those he cared about. He always had a kind word, a smile, or a funny noise to brighten your spirits.
Photography was his life. (That is until he met Stella.) Whenever he spoke of her his face lit up. She was everything to him.
I hope to carry on the legacy of his work and commitment to friendship; as Stella, his family and all of us who loved him, carry WITH US the legacy of his love.
He will be dearly missed.

My Beloved Husband, Steven:
From the moment he lassoed me with his Indiana Stack proposal, we lived one big beautiful adventure together.
Steve wanted to make each and every day exciting and memorable.
Always positive, even with his health issues, Steve never stopped making those around him smile.
He was the definition of mensch.
His silly sense of humor, endless jokes, and endearing warmth, captivated and drew everyone in, like a magnet.
He loved shooting people, that is , with a Camera. It was his passion and he always took the time to mentor others.
He held the patent on the noises, and words to use, to make everyone smile, in the countless photographs he took, over the decades. His photographs will continue to bring priceless memories and smiles, to thousands and thousands of people.
His wonderful family meant the world to him. His love of family so evident, by his many heartwarming gestures.
His long enduring friendships, which were an integral part of his life, were due to his constant commitment to those he loved, and unwavering loyalty. He did love his friends so much.
I am so blessed that we found each other. The adventure was too brief.
The love though, will never cease. He was everything to me . He was my life.
Today is our five year Wedding Anniversary.
Be at peace, my Darling. I love you. I miss you.

I find myself wondering how I lost touch with him. I have an old business card of his and when I finally got around to finding him again the number was disconnected. I just found him on Facebook and then found his obituary. I knew him in high school, we both graduated together. We were both into photography and he was always full of fascinating ideas, but he always wanted to photograph photograph things. I am so sorry to hear of his passing, as I am 57 also I grieve for his short life. I am glad he did what he loved so much, and am very glad he found true love as well. He will be sorely missed. I am sorry I was too late to be there for him. Rest in peace my old friend.

The papers say that Steven Stack was a man loved by family and friends, but... he was so much more.
I lost my dear friend on Monday night. News of his passing numbed me as the tears flowed. This was my friend and colleague that I had worked with for more than 12 years. During that time we photographed thousands upon thousands of children during the Christmas and Chanukah seasons. Steve was a committed professional who was fiercely dedicated to his work, and it showed in every masterpiece created.
He was equally committed to his friends who were so important to him in his life. He was a giver. A giver of care, a giver of concern ... a giver of help ... often placing the concerns and needs of others before his own, regardless of the consequences. Steve was always behind you when you needed him. Add to these many stellar attributes the fact that Steve was a true romanticist. A man absolutely head-over-heels in love with his darling wife, Stella. There wasn't a day that would pass that Steve wouldn't call his Sweetheart to tell her how much he loved her. Stella was the Angel that entered into and brightened his life.
His passing is the loss of a loving son, a caring brother, a doting uncle and devoted husband. A proud man who chose to often to put others before his own worries, pain and concerns.
For all of us that shared in his life we were fortunate to have experienced his gentleness and kindness. And, for all of us, we shall carry the memory of his life, for the rest of ours.
God Bless, my Friend

Stephen and I were heartbroken to hear today that Steve is gone. His wide-open smile and loving friendship to so many people will live on for a long time to come. The world is missing a beautiful person with his death. We send our love to you, Stella, and to all Steve's family and friends.

I will miss his warm greeting, his smile which conveyed more than words as to how happy he was to see you - there was no pretense to his friendship-it was as genuine, caring, considerate and as kind as any I have known--we did not see as much of each other as both of us would have liked, however when those times occurred they were precious because of our mutual respect and love, without words, just knowing he was a true friend--he was a great guy before Stella but so much greater and so much happier with Stella in so few short years together-he never failed to tell me how much he loved her although it was so apparent--to Stella, his wonderful parents, his brother and family our condolences, our love and our gratitude for sharing this wonderful human being with us---
