Dear Francis, Blair, Colleen, Cathy and family, Mike and I were very sorry to hear of Uncle Fraser passing away, we have fond memories of him and your Mom when they would come over on Sundays, he always referred to Mike as the border, my brothers still bring it up when we all get together.

So sorry to hear about the passing of Uncle Fraser. He will always be remembered. His favorite line (to us) "O.K. Kay, we've eaten, lets leave!" He was a character. You can't blame a man for being honest!

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Love to all, God Bless, The Cutlers and all of the new generation Americans.
