Loading ...In Memoriam: Jeffrey Kramer
Jeffrey Kramer, founder of Miami, Florida, supplier Bullet Line, LLC (UPIC: BULLET), passed away on May 27 in his Miami Beach home after a battle with cancer. He was 62.
Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Kramer moved to Miami in 1968. Gifted with a strong business mind, he founded a number of successful businesses, the first when he was 19. Kramer grew Bullet Line into a successful promotional products company with more than 450 employees. He was actively involved in the development of many of the products sold by Bullet Line, and led the industry in offering three-day delivery and was one of the first to manufacture goods in mainland China. Kramer was also a founding member of the Gold Coast Promotional Products Association (GCPPA), actively participating in the association’s board and donating time and resources.
An avid traveler and owner of thoroughbred racehorses, Kramer also donated his time to a number of charitable organizations. He served on the boards of the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis, Jewish Family Services and Miami Country Day School. Kramer was also a Society Member of Mount Sinai Hospital, and he and his wife have been supporters of the American Lung Association, Jewish Guild for the Blind, JAFCO and the New Israel Fund, and they are Grand Founders at the University of Miami.
Kramer is survived by his wife of 30 years, Kandy, and son, Spencer; his mother, Jean Kramer, and sister Donna Gross. Services were held on March 30 at Riverside Gordon Chapel in Aventura. The family asks that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis.
