Stella K. Block died on November 1, 1996. She was a long-time member of the Organization, Technocracy Inc. and an integral part of it. She joined Technocracy Inc., on December 12, 1938 and became part of the Continental Headquarters staff in 1965. She was one of the last members to have worked closely with the founder of Technocracy Inc., Howard Scott.

Stella contributed to the work of Technocracy Inc. in many important and diverse ways: She was the organization's Secretary, Treasurer, as well as President of North American Associates. She also wrote extensively for the magazines and contributed ideas for many of the "Briefs"; the popular "Brief" WOMEN was devised and written by her. She corresponded with many individuals and groups in her continuing quest to inform and acquaint as many people as possible about Technocracy.

Stella was an interesting and stimulating person to be with and her interest and knowledge on a wide range of subjects was evidence of her continuing quest to obtain relevant information. She was dedicated to the stated goals of Technocracy, and to that end she devoted her life in an unswerving service to Technocracy. To the very end she was alert and interested in everything around her.

To all who knew Stella, she was an example, someone to look up to, and who, by her standards, provided leadership. We who knew her, loved and respected her. The members of Technocracy Inc. owe her a debt of gratitude. She will be sorely missed, but will remain in the hearts and minds of us all. Thank you Stella, you made a great contribution to humanity.
