Chris grew up in Angola, Indiana, and dedicated over 20 years of his career as a maintenance technician at Edon Machine, where he was a proud member of UAW Local 715. He was known for his strong work ethic and the pride he took in his craft.
An avid outdoorsman, Chris found great joy in hunting and fishing. In his younger years, he could often be found riding his Harley-Davidson whenever the weather allowed, embracing the freedom of the open road. He lived life with a quiet strength and a deep appreciation for the simple things he loved.
Chris is survived by his daughter, Christy Pearson (Jim) of Angola, Indiana; his son, Brian Fraley (Krista) of Ashley, Indiana; and his sister, Pamela Jackson of Fremont, Indiana. He was a proud grandfather to eleven grandchildren and one great-grandson, all of whom brought him immense joy.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Ron and Mary Ann Fraley; his beloved wife, Diane Fraley; and his brother, Mark Fraley.
Chris will be remembered for his dedication to his family, his love of the outdoors, and the lasting memories he created with those who knew and loved him.
