I knew Ira for more than thirty years. We began as competitors at the Oakland Airport; but as the years went by, we became friends and then informally merged our two companies and worked together. As he once said: "It takes two." I saw him last at his house on October 12. He talked as always about the fun we had and how grateful he was for his family and friends. I showed him the latest photos of my young grandchildren. He wanted to see them all. When I left he said, "You be safe out there now and tell the family hi." He always said that and he always meant it. Yesterday I realized it had been a while so I called his number and then of course realized something was not right. I typed in his name and the tears came. Rest gently, my friend.

I met Ira at the Oakland Airport many years ago. I think in '05 as he and my Dad delivered luggage for their respective airlines. He was always so nice to me and we had brief conversations about a variety of things. He also gave me deliveries which I appreciated. I remember him telling me how much he loved to drive and how fun it is. I know he enjoyed driving around the Bay Area delivering luggage during those days as I did too. His smile when I'd see him at the airport is still a clear visual to me to this day. I actually didn't know he was into golf until my Dad told me years later but I'm glad to know he had a strong passion for it. My condolences to the entire family.

One of my favorite memories of Uncle Ira, was when Oakland would have the random hot days in the summer and we would all go drive up to his house to go jump into the refreshing pool for the cool temperatures, laughs, and great BBQ. He always made sure everyone was fed and happy! I remember my Mother and I would go to our local Safeway grocery store and see Uncle Ira. " Hey how you beautiful ladies doing today?!". Uncle Ira we will always hold you deep in our heart, and share all our greatest memories of you.

Mr. Ira Fair truly inspired my interest in the stock market. He would trade those penny stocks and make you feel like you were leaving loads of money on the table if you didn’t participate. After a few years of going to the pool and being scolded, I finally opened an E*TRADE account and placed my first penny stock trade in which I lost all my money lol because I bought at the very very top. ATTBF about 15 years ago. That definitely gave me pause but understanding that I knew nothing about the markets. For the past four years, I have been heavily entrenched in learning all that I can about how to read charts becoming a very strong Day Trader. I thank Ira for inspiring me and opening my eyes to the unlimited financial potential in this business.
