To John, Jeremy, Dana and the Frazier Family
Just take it a day at a time and rest and trust in the Lord. He’ll never leave you, nor forsake you. He’ll give you strength to endure and He’ll carry you through. I miss Deedy but I know she’s at rest in a better place. I’ll never forget her and her giant smile.
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Proverbs 3:5-6

Lil Johnny & Family,
Thoughts and prayers are with you John & Jeremy & Dana. Dee was more than just cousin in-law from time I first was introduce to. Dee treated me like a nephew from day 1. I know she will be miss personally by myself. The last words I got from her will remain in my head about marriage.
Thank you Dee and much Love to you Cousin............

I know the great Love that you had for Deedy. That love will continue on as she is so ever present with the Lord with a new Body. May God give you and the family great peace as you remember the times you shared here on earth with her. She is smiling and watching over each of you. I Love you, and may God bless you.

You have my deepest sympathy in the loss of Deedy. Deedy and I were friends from way back. I met her through her cousin Sherman (on Feliciana St.) Deedy always was a happy person with a beautiful smile and a positive outlook on life. You now have a Guardian Angel to watch over you, and so do I.

To the Frazier,Paten Family,
I think you already know how my Family and I feel at this time. We consider you all to be our chosen family; therefore, we share your heartache. But know that the only things that will help are prayer and time. You come from a strong faith-based family and know how to get through the tough times. Draw on that resource and just keep your heads to the sky. She was a strong and positive force that had to be set free.
Peace and blessing to you all.

Earth has no sorrows that Heaven can not heal.
To: John and your children; Earl, Jr., Marily, Wendell, Veronica & Orville; (ANOTHER SPARK HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE WHEEL) but remember, Deede doesn't have this life to worry about anymore. I can see her now (smiling) and safe in the arms of Uncle Earl & Aunt Audrian and all of our family members that has gone on ahead to welcome her to her new home on high. There are no words that I can possibly say right now to heal your sorrow, but there is one who will take you in his arms and dry all tears away and as each day goes by, it gets better.
Want you guys to know that you are in my prayers and I do LOVE you all dearly,
Your Cuz

To the family of Deidre,
You have my deepest sympathy. It breaks my heart to know the pain that you are suffering right now but know that God is in control. As a former co-worker of Veronica at Sylvanie Williams, I had the opportunity to meet the Frazier family on several occasions. I saw in you a loving family that cared for one another through the good and bad times. I know as a family you will make it through. You will be in my prayers. Ms. Lindsey
