秀色短视频 saddened by death of Dr. Frances Frazer
The faculty and staff of the 秀色短视频 are saddened to learn of the death on January 20, 2010, of Dr. Frances M. Frazer, a long-time faculty member at 秀色短视频 and wife of Dr. Ronald Baker, 秀色短视频's first president.
Dr. Frazer taught in the 秀色短视频 English department from 1969 to 1992, serving as Chair from 1988 to 1991. She was acting Dean of Arts from 1989 to 1990. She also taught at the University of British Columbia, the University of Alberta, and Simon Fraser University. She is remembered as a fine scholar and a role model for students, especially women.
Long-time friend and colleague Michael Hennessey remembers Dr. Frazer with respect and affection.
'Fran was an excellent teacher, demanding but fair, who sought to instill a love of literature in her students. As a result, many of her students went on to graduate studies. She enjoyed life, liked a good sing-song, often peppered her witticisms with literary allusions, and absolutely loved ballroom dancing. She was Ron's anchor--they did everything together--and he will miss her greatly. Our sympathies are with Ron and their son Ted at this most difficult time.'
At the request of the family, donations in Dr. Frazer's memory may be made to the Robertson Library at 秀色短视频 or any university library.
