  1. I’m saddened by the loss of Frazzie. I, along with my mother, Donna, would occasionally talk with Frazzie while we visited our uncle at Douglas. Frazzie was a great presence there – I wish I could have gotten to know him better. His entire family is in our thoughts.

  2. I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Frazzie. I would occasionally visit Frazie when I visited my uncle, Bernard (Gene) in Omaha. My mother, Donna, would also talk to Frazzie when she visited Gene. Frazzie was a great person to talk with – I wish I could have gotten to know him better. His entire family is in our thoughts right now.

  3. My thoughts and love are with the Wynn family. “I have hope toward God . . . that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.”—ACTS 24:15. I look forward to seeing both he and my dad again.
