Ken graduated from Abilene High School in 1955 and attended all of his class reunions for the past 60 years and kept in touch with classmates. He and his brother grew up working with their dad and uncles learning all aspects of construction. After high school, he attended college in Denton, Texas and joined the Army in 1957. Following the Army, Ken worked in construction, mainly concrete. He did everything from building dormitories at Texas Tech University to building high rises in Las Vegas, Nevada. In the seventies, Ken moved his family to Texas and settled in Frisco. This is where he started his own business, Fraser Construction. His specialty became building pool decks. He was well known in the Dallas area for his design and quality of work. He held that reputation for approximately 25 years until he retired in the mid-nineties. Ken loved his family and put them above all. He enjoyed basketball and especially enjoyed watching his grandsons play sports. After retirement, Ken enjoyed playing golf with his wife and friends. He became Marshall for the Plantation Golf Course in Frisco, where he enjoyed many hours of golf. He was active, always building things for their home; spas, sidewalks, decks, etc. He also enjoyed playing dominoes, dancing, crossword puzzles, and traveling with his wife. Ken will be missed by all who loved him and forever in our hearts. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the American Lung Association or to a charity of one's choice.
