April 9, 1954 –

Oct. 23, 2015

Michael was born in Corona, Calif., the son of Bob and Donna Fraser of Oak Harbor.

Mike’s father was in the Navy, so Michael attended schools across the United States, always returning to Oak Harbor on every other tour of duty here that his dad had. He attended Learn and Play Kindergarten here and graduated from Oak Harbor High School in 1972. He loved getting together with his lifelong friends Butch, Ron, Neil and Jeff.

He was predeceased by his wife Debra, the love of his life, in 2005, when he was a supervisor for America West Airline.

He is survived by his parents, Bob and Donna Fraser; sister Lori (Jim) Stewart; brother Bob (Cheryl) Fraser; seven nieces and nephews; five great-nieces and nephews; and his aunt and uncle, Rob and Susen Dasch.

Mike is also survived by the countless people whose lives he touched on his journey with AA. To quote one of his AA friends, “I’ll never forget Mike, he saved my life.” He worked tirelessly with this organization until he lost his fight with cancer. At Michael’s request there will be no public ceremony. A private family service will be held. Memorials may be made to the American Cancer Society, 3120 McDougall Ave., Suite 100, Everett, WA 98201.
