Dennis W. Fraser, Sr.

A lifelong resident of Lakeland, Florida, Dennis W. Fraser, Sr. passed away on January 19, 2026, at the age of 72. He was born in Lakeland on November 4, 1953, to Milton and Frankie Fraser.

Dennis graduated from Kathleen High School in 1971. In June of 1975, he married the love of his life, Deborah Donato Fraser, and together they shared 50 wonderful years, building a beautiful legacy of love and family. He was a proud business owner for over 40 years repairing electronics.

Dennis had a passion for music and enjoyed collecting vinyl records and antiques. He loved spending time outdoors and fishing, but nothing brought him more joy than time spent with his family-especially his beloved grandchildren. He was a proud member of Good Shepherd Methodist Church.

Dennis will be deeply missed by his devoted wife, Deborah Fraser, his sons Dennis W. Fraser, Jr. and David Fraser, his cherished grandchildren Asher and Nora, and his brothers Larry Fraser and Lee Fraser. He is also survived by uncles, aunts, nieces, and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Milton and Frankie Fraser, and his brother Warren Fraser.

A visitation will be held on Tuesday, January 27th, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. at Gentry-Morrison Funeral Home at Serenity Gardens, with graveside services to follow at 11:00 a.m. at Serenity Gardens.
