| Willie Charles Frazier |
On
Sunday, November 11, 2012, Brother Willie Charlie Frazier, affectionately known
as “W.C.” passed from earth to heaven’s reward. There will be no more sorrow,
pain or suffering, it was God’s will that he should go.
Bro.
W.C. was born on November 10, 1920 to the late Thomas Frazier and the late Lena Green Frazier. He was
united in holy matrimony to the late Lizzie Coleman Frazier and to that union
eleven children were born.
He
was a hard-working man who believed in providing for his family. He labored
hard and long in the vineyard of life reaping many rewards. His passion was
tilling the soil and making things grow; many people knew him because of his
generosity with the fruits of his labor. W.C. was employed by the Town of Amite
with the City Maintenance Department for many years. He was an industrious and
loyal employee until his retirement.
Bro.
W.C. was a loving husband, father and grandfather. He made sure that his wife,
his children and his grandchildren were provided for. He and his wife had a
very special and loving relationship, in later years he served as her caregiver
during her illness. His concern was always for “Lizzie”. “Big Daddy” as he was
known to the grandchildren would always be there when he was needed.
Bro.
W.C. devoted his life to God and became a member of Gordon Chapel Church of God
in Christ under the leadership of Supt. Alexander Richardson. He served as a
devoted member under the leadership of both the late Supt. Samuel Richardson
and Supt. Emmitt N. Richardson, Sr. and attended services until his health no
longer allowed him do so. His devotion to God and his church never wavered; he
continued to do all that he could in the service of the Lord.
