Colonie – Joan B. Mirabile (Stack) entered into eternal life on Tuesday, June 11, 2024 at the age of 96. She was born in Albany, NY daughter of the late Michael and Bridget (Daly) Stack and was a lifelong resident of Albany.
She worked for NYS Taxation as a Tax Information Aide and receptionist, Bankers Trust and Department of Environmental Conservation, but her most rewarding job was as a homemaker. Joan was an avid reader of mystery novels, crime shows and her daughters always said that she would have made a great detective! She was also an avid bowler at Sunset bowling alley.
Joan loved her family immeasurably. She showed great interest in her grandchildren and great grandchild; always asking to see the videos or hearing of their triumphs!
She is predeceased by her beloved husband of 58 years Antonio Mirabile and survived by her cherished two daughters, Judy Jacobson and Tina (Dave) Barbier. She is also survived by her much-loved grandchildren, Adam Jacobson and Samantha Jacobson, her most treasured great grandchild Greyson Bailey and several nieces and nephews. In addition to her husband and parents she is predeceased by sisters, Katherine (Babe) Macken, Marie Stack, Elaine (Peppy) Noll, brothers Ed Stack, George Stack and Hank Stack. She is the last of the seven siblings to join in eternal life and the Stack Family is complete once again.
