Carol was truly an Angel on earth. I have so many fond memories- learning her great recipes, going out to great meals, eating so many of her fabulous, fabulous home cooked ones... Just sitting and chatting was always such a Blessing whether it be in person or not...
She was the very most awesome person in this world.! Always there to share and to listen, to laugh and say exactly what I needed to hear. She touched my life deeply and was the best doggie mom ever, too.
The strongest, most Faithful, most loyal and beautiful woman I have ever known.
She left behind such a fabulous family, and I am so sorry for you all... God Bless you in this hard time.
I was so Blessed to know Carol and to love her.

When we think of Carol we think of her smile, the way she welcomed you into her home, made you a cup of tea or had one of Uncle Peter's Manhattans with you. Carol was full of grace and when you were with her you felt her glow. We love her very much. Darcy, Gayle, Anastasia, Colleen (Dewsbury), Sarah (Reid) and Michael Rezac

Carol is an inspiration to us as a loving voice for the innocent unborn. We have blessed memories of knowing her and Peter, of standing beside her and learning from her at pro-life events, and of marching for her at Washington DC's annual March for Life wearing the handmade scarves that she made for us and holding the roses that she sent.
You are always in our hearts, Carol, when we pray the rosary in front of a Planned Parenthood, and when we carry our signs in the March for Life. May God shower your family with every comfort and blessing as you pass to your eternal reward with God. May you be received in heaven by a legion of babies holding roses for you. We love you.

At first I was a small part of her medical team. Then we would discuss our cancer journeys. We never left each other without a big hug. Thoughts going out to her family and friends. RIP

It has been a joy knowing Carol. We met her on a chartered bus going to Olympia, Washington for the annual Walk for Life and subsequently, spent many Saturdays with her in Seattle, praying for the life of the unborn and their mothers. I enjoyed most her beautiful smile and her laughter. She was a dear friend that will be missed by all who knew her. In her memory I am making baby quilts that will be donated to the Next Step Pregnancy Center, in her name.

She welcomed me to Seattle and a few pro-life gatherings when I first moved out here ten years ago. When she realized I was a Southern who wasn't at all ready for the cold, she immediately went to her trunk and gave me a nice scarf she had knitted and was just happy to let me keep it. I loved her smile and laugh, and how she loved to talk! God bless you and hold you Carol, and your family.

My deepest sympathy to Peter and the Fraser family. Carol was a person of exceptional character, strong conviction and devoted wife and mother. I knew her as a kind and generous friend and neighbor to my late mother, Ruth Marentette, when they all lived in Seattle at Stendall Place. I shall remember my brief relationship with Carol and Peter with immense respect and gratitude.
