To the Frost Family:

I had the pleasure of taking care of Jack on several occasions when he was a patient at Highland Park Hospital. Jack always had a smile for me and would make it a point to give me a hard time if I didn't come to visit him. His passing is a great loss and I will truly miss him.

Dear Ira, Elise & family:



We are so incredibly sorry to hear about your dad's passing. Everyone knew him to be a wonderful man, a wonderful leader and a great father. It was all because of him that we even met, became roomates, came down to Charon, and our families became so close.



Your dad was so proud of you all and he never stopped talking about you.



Our love and prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Frost Family:



Bill just called with the very sad news about Jack's passing. I both sympathize and empathize with all of you on this loss. Jack was a warm and wonderful man who truly loved life and his family with a passion rarely seen. I can close my eyes and evision Jack and my dad playing tennis or the Frosts and the Golds playing bridge... always having a wonderful time, with warmth radiating from whatever shared activity was going on.

I am so grateful to have spent some time talking with Jack at Mom's shivah. You are truly blessed to have had him as a husband, father, grandfather, friend... And he was blessed by having all of you.

My deepest sympathies on the passing of a man who had an impact on my life that was immense... I am with you in memory and spirit if not in fact.



Love, Debby
