MARY THERESA FRASER Peacefully, with her family at her side, Mary Theresa Fraser passed away on December 9, 2004, at the age of 84 years. Mary was born in Ohio, Antigonish County, NS, on September 20, 1920. She leaves to cherish her loving memory her children, Kathleen (Vic) Buchy of Kimberley, BC, Bill (Eileen) Fraser of Winnipeg and Alexa (Jules) Gervais of Winnipeg; her grandchildren, Tom (Lori) Buchy of Kimberley, Shaunna Buchy of Kamloops, Bobby, Danny and Scott Fraser of Winnipeg, Kevin Gervais of Winnipeg, Jarred (Tina) Gervais of Winnipeg, Jan (Jay) Owens of Toronto, Jackie (Rob) Jones of Toronto; her great-grandchildren, Alysha and Kaila Buchy of Kimberley and Owen and Zenon Buchy of Kamloops; her sisters, Chrissie Chisholm and Verna Moore of Montreal and Marie MacDonald and Florence Burroughs of Hamilton; sisters-in-law, Grace Fraser of Winnipeg and Anne-Marie Chisholm of Montreal. Mary was predeceased by her husband Tom Fraser in 1967; her sisters, Margaret McKenna, Catherine MacDonald; her brothers, Donald Chisholm, Father John Archie Chisholm, Alex Chisholm, Joseph Chisholm and Joseph Chisholm (young Joe). Mary was a warm, loving person. She had a wonderful sense of humour, strength of character and tenacity of spirit. Her family and many friends were very important to her. Mary always looked for the positive in everyone - and found it. Mary was employed for many years at Eatons, then worked for the Federal Government for several years until her retirement at age 65. She was an avid gardener, devoted grandmother, beautiful knitter and above all, she was a true friend to everyone. The family would like to extend special thanks to Dr. R. Lotocki and the Palliative Care Program of St. Boniface Hospital. Marys sisters, Marie and Florence, provided loving homecare for which the family is eternally grateful. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to St. Boniface Hospital.
