George Henry Frangel III, of Potosi, Missouri, passed away on Friday, November 28, 2025 at his home at the age of 39. He was born on March 26, 1985, in St. Louis, the beloved son of the late George Henry Frangel II and Theresa Ellen (Mentel) Frangel.
George was the kind of person who could turn an ordinary day into something memorable. With his ready smile, playful sense of humor, and love of all things loud and artistic, he brought energy wherever he went. Music, art, and laughter were his trademarks—and he shared them generously with the people he cared about. George loved God and often spoke about how much he missed his family and friends who had gon eon before him.
George is survived by his wife, Ashley Frangel; his four children, Cameron Kean, Kensi Davies, Grayson Davies, and Lilyana Frangel; his siblings, Johnny Phillips and Becky Phillips; his stepfather, Vernon “Pedo” Goodson; and many other beloved family members and friends.
In addition to his parents, George was preceded in death by his infant son, George Franklin Frangel Kean; his sister, Natalie; and close friends Larry, Shawn, and BJ Lands.
Visitation will be held on Tuesday, December 2, 2025, from 10:30 AM until the time of his Funeral Service at 1:00 PM at DeClue Funeral Home. Interment and final prayers will follow at New Diggins Cemetery.
George’s funeral arrangements were respectfully entrusted to the care and direction of DeClue Funeral Home.
George will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him, and his memory will forever remain in the hearts of those he leaves behind.
