May God strengthen the family as you go forward. Always cherish Deacon Melvin's smile, and sense of humor. Whenever we met, he would say something that would make me laugh๐ That will be truly missed.
My sincere sympathy to the family of Deacon Fraizer. I had the pleasure to be a student in his Sunday School Class, and he was one of the best teachers I have had. He was always willing to take a deeper dive into the word to make sure the students had a clear understanding, and I will always be grateful. May you all rest in the comfort of our Lord.
To Deacon Frazier's family, He will definitely be missed by me and many others. I will miss his unique way of addressing me as Sankman. I would call him Melvinnnn. Well Melvinnnn, I will see you on the other side. Sankman
What a genuine soul always with a beautiful smile ,he always reminded me we were family .
Praying for the peace of almighty God to comfort the family in Jesus name.
