"I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of my dear friend, Felix Fraga. Felix never forgot his roots and never forgot his friends. Throughout his service on Houston City Council and on the HISD Board of Trustees, and later as a community activist, Felix fought tirelessly to improve the lives of everyday people. I was honored to work with Felix to advance the cause of equity and justice in our region. His legacy will be long lasting and his presence sorely missed.”
