Richard Frazier Obituary
Richard D. Frazier, 95, of Carey, passed away at 5:33 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 28, 2022, at his residence.
Richard was born March 2, 1927, in Fulton County, the son of Dale B. and Erma C. (Fortney) Frazier. He married Laurell Elizabeth (Dible) Hall on May 3, 1969. Laurell preceded him in death Dec. 19, 2017.
A World War II veteran, Richard proudly served his country in U.S. Navy.
