John (Jack) Lawrence Frase died September 29, 2020. He was born on July 2, 1948, spent his youth in the Copley-Fairlawn area of Ohio, attended St. Paul Lutheran Church in Sharon Center and was a graduate of Copley High School. He studied history at Baldwin-Wallace College and later attended the University of Cincinnati. He lived in Lexington, Ky, where he met his husband, later San Francisco , finally ending up in Cincinnati. He retired from the Pubic Library of Cincinnati after 25 years of service in 2003. He is preceded in death by his parents, Austin and Corinne (nee Peters) Frase and sister , Patricia Frase. He is survived by his husband, Larry Griggs, brother Dan Frase (Cindy); sister, Nancy Bittner (Bob); nephews, Patrick Frase (Kim) and Tom Frase; great-niece and great-nephew, Brooke and Cooper Frase; and many cousins and in-laws.
