Voters elected Stack earlier in November to her third four-year term. Stack worked as city clerk and in Trenton’s parks and recreation office before being first elected mayor in 2011.

Congresswoman Debbie Dingell (D-MI) issued the following statement on the passing Stack.

“Kyle leaves a deep hole in our community. Kyle was not just a close friend and adviser to me, she was a visionary leader of Downriver. She loved Trenton and devoted everything to see it through good times and bad. I just spoke with her yesterday, we were planning one of our many girls nights. As a community we remember all she did and continue her work to make Trenton and Downriver a thriving community to live, work, and go to school,” Dingell said.
