Frank B. Jarrell ’49

After a long struggle with leukemia and multiple myeloma, Frank Jarrell died Nov. 11, 2012, at his home in Cobb, Ga.

Frank was born Dec. 20, 1927, in Hopkinsville, Ky., and came to Princeton from North Fulton High School. He majored in economics, served on the board of the Tiger, and joined Key and Seal Club.

During the Korean War, Frank served as a second lieutenant in the Army in Germany. He then spent 20 years in the family men’s clothing business, after which he was engaged in sales in the printing industry.

Retirement brought Frank and his wife, Marion (“Sissie”) Ellis Jarrell, to other interests, including the restoration of an 1830s Federal house (now on the National Register of Historic Places), trading in old sporting books, art, and memorabilia (via his “Flintside Gallery”), fishing, and raising Labrador retrievers. He was an active Episcopalian.

To Sissie; their children, Jim, Anne, Frank, and Robert; and eight grandchildren, we extend the profound sympathy of the class.
