Duncan Fraser

Duncan Fraser

                 George Duncan Fraser 

                         July 05, 1941 -- July 12, 2025

G. Duncan Fraser, Jr., of Flat Rock, North Carolina, a dedicated professional and beloved family man, passed away peacefully on July 12, 2025. Born on July 5, 1941, in Omaha, Nebraska, he lived a full and vibrant life, having recently celebrated his 84th birthday.

Duncan was a respected Certified Public Accountant who founded and operated Duncan Fraser & Associates where he provided invaluable financial expertise and guidance to his clients for over 4 decades. His personal approach and technical excellence earned him the admiration of colleagues and clients alike.

Duncan was civic minded, community oriented, and active in numerous philanthropic organizations. He was a lifelong member and mentor (a “Big”) of the Big Brother Association. Duncan was a volunteer audio book narrator at his local library. He was also active with The Park at Flat Rock and the Flat Rock Playhouse.

In addition to the accomplishments above, Duncan was a man of diverse interests and passions. He relished the freedom of flying N88PA and had made several cross-country flights often seeking routes he had not previously flown. On the sea, Duncan found joy on the waters around Key Biscayne fishing on his boat: CODA. As an avid sportsman, he enjoyed playing competitive tennis, recreational golf and even once drove a professional racecar.

His deep appreciation for the outdoors was further reflected in his love for hunting and travel. Duncan's affection for dogs was well known, and they were a constant presence in his life.

Duncan earned a Master's degree from the University of Nebraska. He was a voracious reader and a man of intellectual curiosity who relished time studying maps and solving puzzles. He was a lifelong learner, a value he instilled in those around him.

He is preceded in death by his father, George Duncan Fraser, his mother, Ann Flanagan Fraser, and his sister, Nancy Fraser Coffey.

He is survived by a loving family who will forever cherish his memory: his devoted wife, Eleanor H. Fraser; his sons, Charles D. Fraser of Plainfield, CT, and F. Alexander Fraser of Mill Valley, CA; his beloved granddaughter, Campbell E. Fraser; and three grandsons, Leighton R. Fraser, Whitley A. Fraser, and Graham A. Fraser. He is also survived by his cousin, Suedy F. Hruby, and his "little brother," Dean Huh, who held a special place in his heart.

In honor of Duncan's life and legacy, memorial contributions may be made to the Flat Rock Playhouse, The Park at Flat Rock, and The Big Brothers Big Sisters of America (Boston), reflecting his commitment to community and culture. His memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.

I wanted the '59 Westside class to know that Duncan Fraser died on the 12th of July in a rehab center near Flatrock NC. He had an infection in an artificial knee, was waiting for it to clear up so he could get a new one. Do not know the cause of death. No service until Sept. Gary Hruby

Not that we need to be reminded that we're not getting any younger, but Duncan's passing leaves only 2 of us now from our 1st grade Loveland class.  Duncan, Sonny Brown, and I all had motor bikes or motorcycles back around the late grade school or early junior high years.  I had a factory Whizzer (and then a Triumph Tiger Cub) Sonny had a Harley Davidson Hummer, and Duncan came up with a used three wheel cycle that had been retired by the Omaha police department.  We made some fun memories in what I still remember as the "good ole days".

I'd just heard from Duncan two weeks ago after I sent him a cartoon for his birthday.  He didn't mention having any problems, but did respond with a typical comment about my choice of cartoons.

Im so sorry to hear of the passing of Duncan. I always really liked him and we both lived oin Ridgewood road.  I joined the Loveland school group in grade 3 when we moved to Omaha.  It was a wonderful group of kids and we did lots of fun things together.  RIP Duncan.
