To delete a CloudFormation stack, follow the procedure described in Delete a stack from the CloudFormation console.
Deleting your CloudFormation stack removes most of the EC2 resources (instances, security groups, etc.) created by your CloudFormation template. The exception is that the EBS volumes are not removed. Should you want to remove the EBS volumes after deleting your stack, you must manually remove them by following the procedure described in Delete an Amazon EBS volume.
Note:
When a stack is deleted, the EBS volume that was created for the first node in each zone is also deleted. However the EBS volumes for any additional nodes in each zone are not deleted. This is because they were not created directly in the CloudFormation stack, but instead as a part of the startup process of the additional nodes.
