Not sure what to say?

I was privileged to care for Mr. Frager in a small way during his illness. I will remember his great
courage, dignity, and even good humour despite his illness. My family and I wish his survivors peace and fortitude in dealing with this loss.

Jack was my boss in La Jolla back when it was Shearson Lehman Brothers. And if it's possible to not really love the job but to love the boss, that's what happened to me. He was the brightest human being in that office; literally tall, smart, handsome, and he lit up the room. He had a gift for sales, was always genuinely friendly, and was consistently a very great leader. I remember Judy G. with her "oh Jack," and "the boss" always making her (and the rest of us) laugh. I can still see him...

Dear Fragers: I've never met anyone quite like Jack Frager: the good looks, the sharp clothes, the twinkle in the eyes, the quick and ever present smile, the quips, the jokes.... I never saw him down and I never heard him say an unkind word about another person. If every life is an example or a warning, Jack was a heckuva good example.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Frager Famiy, Please accept my deepest sympathies.

To the family of Jack Frager:
Back in the late 70s, I was a junior lawyer at a firm then known as Sullivan, Jones, and Archer. I was assigned to work on some cases where I met Jack. I think Jack must have known Jim Sullivan and that is how the firm ended up doing the work.
In all my dealings with Jack, he was always in a good mood and pleasant to work with. He appeared to be a great salesman with a terrific personality.
Years later, in the mid-90s, I ran into Jack at several...

Sincere condolences to all the Frager family. In my 40 years as a stockbroker, I had no manager better than Jack. And I saw many managers. He was constantly pleasant, fair in all respects, a pleasure to be with. What a great smile from a great guy! Since I retired from Smith Barney nine years ago I had not been in touch with Jack but I wish I had seen more of him. That is my loss. My wife and I will remember Jack in our prayers, and send our best to all his family.

I first met Jack in 1973 when I went to work for his company in San
Diego. He did light up a room! Even after I left the company I would
meet him on the streets of La Jolla or meetings, and the meeting never failed to lift my spirits. I have been away from San Diego for a few years and have not had that good fortune of "running into him" for awhile. I will miss him very much. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
