FRASER Robert

MR. ROBERT “BOB” JAMES FRASER, passed away at the Chinook Regional Hospital on Monday, August 12, 2013 at the age of 68 years. He is the loving father and grandfather of his 2 children Brenda & Andy Haines (Ashleigh, Rylee, Paige & Jared) of Calgary and Doug & Betty Fraser of Creston, BC. He also leaves behind a brother Ron & Sharon Fraser of Lethbridge, a sister Karen & Wallace Dorchak of Vulcan, numerous neices, nephews and cousins as well as a special friend Jeanette Thomasson of Lethbridge.
He was predeceased by his parents Alec & Jean Fraser, brother and sister-in-law Gord & Sharon Fraser. Bob was raised in Lomond, AB and was thrilled to have just gone to his 50 year school reunion last month. He drove truck for most of his working life taking his family to BC, Saskatchewan, Pincher Creek and finally to Taber. Bob enjoyed life to the fullest and has overcome many attempts to pull him down. Bob had a severe stroke at 38 years of age, battled cancer at 50 and kept on trucking. Even after he could no longer drive a vehicle he could be found out cruising in his scooter, checking out (supervising) the nearby road construction or running to the store down the road. He enjoyed his time at the Good Samaritan West Highlands facility where he spent his final years. A Celebration of his life will be held at Knox United Church – 4929 50 Ave, Taber, Alberta, on August 30, 2013 at 2:00 PM with Jim Lindemann officiating. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to The Good Samaritan Society – West Highlands Gazebo fund – 2687 Garry Drive West, Lethbridge, AB, T1J 5A3.
