Larry Tyson Fraser

March 10, 1947 – November 27, 2023

It’s with profound sadness that we, the family, announce the sudden passing of Larry Tyson Fraser on November 27, 2023, at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital.

Larry, the only child of the late Henry & Linda Fraser of Pictou Co., Nova Scotia, was also predeceased by his In-Laws Robert & Mae MacDonald and stepson Nicholas Wither.

He is survived by his loving wife of 28 years, Mary MacDonald-Fraser, stepdaughter Tiffany Withers (Andy), granddaughters Carys & Hunter, and his grandsons Nicholas & Harlan, who all affectionately called him Papa. Larry also leaves behind numerous family members from Pictou and on the MacDonald side from Sydney Mines.

After retiring from Nova Scotia Power, Larry enjoyed many days fishing with his good friend Moby and spending time at Northside Downs with his good friend Gary. Larry had many friends in the racing industry from PEI and Cape Breton. He will be truly missed by all who knew him. A special gift from his daughter Tiffany was his dog and partner “Bartley,” who gave him many days of joy; they had a close bond and were always seen walking or driving together.

The Family would like to Thank Heather Skinner, RN Palliative Care, and Dr. Burns, who were both amazing in his final days with us. To the nursing staff of 4E at the CBRH, especially Nurse Heather and family Physician Dr. Peter Poulis, thank you for your continuing care. Our dear friends Jim and Angela Jessome, you were there for us to the end – we are forever grateful.

A Heartfelt thank you to J.M. Jobes Funeral Home for their professionalism and service. Cremation has taken place, and a graveside service for Larry will take place at a later date.

Rest in Peace, Larry, you were a kind and Loving husband.
