If you know the members of the Fraser family then you would know that this family, having pulled themselves up from humble beginnings, have nothing but love and a never-ending thirst to give back to the less fortunate ones in Jamaica. Maureen (a dental Doc based in New Jersey) work tirelessly throughout the year to support certain charity organizations which help to feed and school a ton load of poor ones back in Jamaica. Sandra in Miami has no life other than hooking up with Sharon in Kingston to help with the dozens of different things they do to help. Their cousin Wayne (a Miami & Pembroke Pines Doc) donates his time out of his Medical practice to support every little Jamaican event.
I know of Ray, can't recall having met him, but if the rest of the Frasers I know are anything to go by then I'm sure the goodly Doctor of Anotto Bay is of the same mold ready to help anyone!
And then there was Paul (the late Ricky Patrick Fraser of Clarendon). He had just one aspiration when he lived in Florida: to go back home to Jamaica where he felt he would be better able to help his fellow Jamaicans from the home front. Today those of us who knew of Paul are left with the stunning reality of a life brutally wiped out!
As the Pastor opined: "Man fi dead..." for what they did to Paul!

CENTRAL Jamaica pastor Mark Stewart is calling for tougher punishment for those who kill, and in the process rob the society of some of its great minds. Delivering the sermon at the funeral service for murdered Clarendon dentist, Dr Ricardo Patrick Fraser at the Blue Mountain United Church in Manchester last week, Rev Stewart said that those who killed the dentist should not be allowed to live.
