Beverly Fraser Elinor was my close friend, we spoke daily and I will miss her. She was a strong person and endured so much, but just had no strength left. So I see her walking through Beacon Hill Park and Butchart Gardens with no wheel chair or walker to assist. She and Harvey did that a lot when they were both well. So now she can do it with Ian until Harvey joins them. Until we meet again my friend. Beverly
So sorry to hear of Elinor’s passing. I remember Elinor as a friend, a teacher and also the Mother of Ian, one of my daughter, Karri’s friends. My thoughts and prayers to Harvey and family.
