Fran Jabara
It's impossible to describe all that Fran Jabara accomplished in a few sentences.
He was a nationally known entrepreneur.
He was a philanthropist.
He was a much-loved and respected professor.
He was a loving brother, son, husband, father and grandfather.
But perhaps most of all, he was a mentor, his friends say.
"It just made you better to be around Fran, one way or another," said David Mitchell, a longtime friend of Mr. Jabara's. "He was one of those people you just wish you could have been around more."
Mr. Jabara died Saturday morning at the age of 90.
