It is with deep sadness we announce the
passing of Viona GLORIA Doreen
Fraser. Gloria passed away unexpectedly at
home on Sunday, October 22, 2023 with her husband Hughie by her
side.
Born in Collingwood, Gloria was a
daughter of the late Milford and Viona (Hyndman)
Hudson.
Gloria excelled in school and graduated
two years early from Oxford Regional High School. Gloria married
Hughie in 1962. After living for several years in Halifax where she
worked as a secretary, they purchased and settled on their farm in
Hartford. Gloria chose to become a full-time
Homemaker.
For many years, they supervised a crew
of fifty people while harvesting blueberries, and later worked as
partners in their sawmill. Gloria was a savvy saleswoman who sold
Tupperware for many years – becoming one of the top salespeople in the
Maritimes. She enjoyed and was exceptionally good at knitting –
participating in local craft shows where her work was in high
demand.
Gloria had accepted Christ as her
Saviour, and for many years faithfully attended the Gospel Hall in
Oxford.
Gloria was the loving wife of Hugh
Fraser, mother to son Rick (Beth) of Cranbrook, BC, and daughter
Catharine (Tom) Mairo of Belchertown, MA, and proud Nanny to grandsons
Justin and Joel Haver.
She is also survived by brothers Aubrey
(Glenys), and Arnold of Sechelt, BC, and sister Elizabeth (Dave)
Jensen of Ottawa.
In addition to her parents, Gloria was
predeceased by brothers Harold and Carl, and Albert in
infancy.
