WILMINGTON — John Charles Fraser, 75, passed away Tuesday, July 21, 2020.
He will be missed by his family and countless friends he made over the years. John grew up in Dorchester, Massachusetts, before meeting his wife of 38 years, Noreen. John and Noreen raised their family in West Milford, New Jersey, before relocating to Wilmington in 2005.

He leaves behind his wife, Noreen, and four children: Danielle, spouse to Jourdan, Sean, spouse to Colleen, Keith, spouse to Sarah, and Brian, spouse to Christine; and five beautiful grandchildren, Chloe, Caleb, Nolan, Blake and Silas. Saddened by his loss are many nephews, nieces, brothers, sisters-in-law and friends.
Known for his love of sports, family gatherings and days at the beach, John will be remembered for his love of others, many years of coaching, and the legacy he leaves behind in his children and grandchildren.
