   Ian was born on September 24,
1940 in Toronto, Ontario to Bill
and Phyllis Fraser. He was an
avid lover of sports, playing on
various hockey and football
teams as a teen, with an
intensity and dedication that
worried his father who believed
Ian should be focusing more on
his studies, and on his future. Ian
would later channel this intensity
and dedication to form the
highly successful enterprise Pro-
Pharma. He was an active
member of the Progressive
Conservative Party of Canada,
serving as a local and national
executive. At the age of sixty,
Ian trained for, and finished, the
Chicago Marathon. Hockey
would always remain a passion,
and Ian took great pride and
pleasure in watching his
grandchildren play, following
them on long distance trips to
cheer them on.
   Ian was the patriarch of his
family. Sitting next to him at
dinner was a highpoint
Everyone wanted his ear. He is
missed, and loved, always.
