In Memory of Colleen L. Fraser

In Memory of Colleen L. Fraser

Colleen L. Fraser was 51 years old and from Elizabeth, New Jersey. Colleen was a passenger on United Airlines Flight 93.

Colleen was born with an inherited bone disorder that kept her height at 4 feet, 6 inches, and made it a little harder for her to get around. However, she was a nationally-known advocate for the disabled and helped draft the "Americans with Disabilities Act."

On September 11, 2001, Colleen was flying to a grant-writing seminar in Reno, Nevada, hoping to become more effective as Executive Director of the Progressive Center for Independent Living.
