Princeton, NJ – Community Options, Inc. is deeply saddened by the passing of longtime advocate Foster Friess. 

“Foster was a very kind man,” stated Robert Stack, President and CEO of Community Options. “My wife, Nikki, and I had the pleasure of hiking in Aspen with his family and he spoke passionately about many causes including improving the lives of people with disabilities. The disability community, as well as the world, lost a great man too soon.”

Friess, a well-known philanthropist, contributed to many causes including Community Options. Friess is survived by his wife, Lynette, as well as their four children and fifteen grandchildren.
