We would like offer our condolences and sympathy to the family, friends and fans of Dr. Frank Jobe.

Dr.Jobe played a BIG part in the history of Major League Baseball (MLB) with his history making "Tommy John" surgery.

His technique extended the careers of many, many baseball players.

Rest In Peace (RIP) !!!

Meredith and I were close friends in High School. I had the privilege of meeting Dr. Jobe once and still remember his gentle yet enveloping personality. It is a sad loss when one so accomplished and giving leaves us.

I was privileged to meet Dr. Jobe at an event for one of the schools where he was educated. He was a fine man as well as a stellar physician. I join those who express condolences for his loss to his son and daughter-in-law, Meredith and Carol, whom I know; and to his other family and friends, of which there are many. May he R.I.P.

Meredith was one of my classmates, and I use to work with Dr. Chris Jobe in surgery. I never met Dr. F. Jobe. But as a baseball fan, I thank him for saving so many baseball careers, and a BIG 'thank you' for his service to this country, and I know he was a great man. So to Mrs. Jobe and all the family, I send my thoughts and prayers. Because of the wonderful Grace of God, I know he is in Heaven now, and you will all be reunited one day. God bless.

My Grandfather Carter Cannon met Dr Jobe right out of medical school. They were very close friends until my grandfather died in 77. He ran Cannons Pharmacy in Westchester. Dr Jobe remained a good friend to our family over the years. May God bless you.

While we are sad to witness te loss of such a talented and humble man, he will not be forgotten. He made some incredible contributions to medicine and touched many lives as a result. If only for this, the words that a wise man once penned ring true, that "A good name is better than good oil, and the day of death is better than the day of birth." May he be remembered for who he was and all that he accomplished.

Having worked at the Kerlan-Jobe clinic and Loma Linda University for Dr. Christopher Jobe, I am deeply saddened. While attending Orthopaedic Technology School, I did my research project on Tommy John surgery, (as Tommy was my favorite Dodger growing up, and Dr. Jobe was my hero for saving his career). Dr. Jobe was more than kind enough to let me interview him on more than one occasion as my main source for my paper. When I got a perfect score, I brought Dr. Jobe a gift and when I took it to him, he was also kind enough to autograph a baseball for me, it is my most prized possessions. Thank You Dr. Jobe, and thank you Dr. Christopher Jobe, for inspiring me to be the best Orthopaedic Technologist I can be!!!! My sincerest and deepest condolences to the family, we have lost a true hero. Roy Capriulo OT-C.

I am saddened to hear of the passing of Dr. Jobe, but refreshed by his life story. There are many things we can learn from him.
His own words reflect humility, in that he was surprised that his procedure would work. And his care was for his patients and others because he was willing to share the insights that he learned with other doctors.
I am sure his procedures had further applications than sports and are helping people worldwide to have a better quality of life.
His successes prove the truth of Psalm 139:14: "in an awe-inspiring way I am wonderfully made".
May God's peace and everlasting strength be with his family at this time of sorrow.

Most baseball gen mgr's rather trade for
a pitcher who has already had the T. J.
John had one less win after the TJ than
Koufax had entire career. Never missed
a start either. But considered to have a bionic arm, reason no HoF 288 wins.
Take nada away from F Jobe, thanks for
memories/history
