Frank E. “Butch” Frazier
Frank E. “Butch” Frazier 84 of Nederland passed away Friday, April 26, at Bonne Vie in Port Arthur.
Butch was born on February 6, 1940, in Port Neches, to Jennie and Gene Frazier. Butch graduated Nederland High School in May of 1958, and married his sweetheart, Myrhl in July of the same year. They began their life together on the family farm in Groveton, TX. In December of 1967, they moved their family back to Nederland and Butch took a job with the Texas Asphalt plant in Port Neches. He retired from his Night Foreman position in 1997, and he and Myrhl spent the next several years traveling throughout America in their RV.
Butch had a natural ability to operate almost any kind of machinery and put that knowledge to good use throughout his life. He loved the outdoors and enjoyed hunting, fishing, and golfing. He was known to tell a few tall tales and enjoyed life to the fullest. He was a feisty and fun father, grandfather and great-grand father and will be missed by all.
He is preceded in death by his father, Gene Frazier, and his mother, Jennie Frazier. He is survived by his spouse of 65 years, Myrhl Frazier; his son, Ricky Frazier and wife, Suzanne, his daughter, Faith Clotiaux and husband, Reagan, his daughter, Lois Johnson and husband, Mike, and daughter, Kelly Harrison.

Twenty-three great grandchildren, Emma, Hallie, Rylie, Claira, Jude, Marley Laura, Sawyer, Livia, Lyla, Tyler, Trace, Ivy, Lillian, Oliver, Grady, Hank, Kameron, Lennon, Quinn, Isla, Sloan, and Beck.

Sorry to hear about Butch’s passing, but very happy I got the chance to know him through our regular bird hunting trips to Thorndale. He was certainly one-of-a-kind, and I always looked forward to hearing what he’d been up to, and a slightly stretched story – or two – after a few adult beverages. I’ve missed not being able to see him over the past few years, and I am sure he will leave a hole in the family gatherings.
Best wishes to Ricky, Bret, and the rest of the family as you move forward through a difficult time.
So sorry to hear this.
Love and hugs to all of you💕

Outstanding man and an amazing legacy that will live on through the lives of this wonderful man. Our condolences are offered to you all.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Lois and Ricky,
I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved dad. I know you will miss him forever.
Love, Susan
Butch and Myrl were always good neighbors. Larry and I knew all their children. Faith drove this convertible thru the neighborhood filled with her friends. Lois was the wife of Michael, good friends of ours. Kelly is a sweetheart with not a care in the world. Ricky “ticky” loved fried chicken which we shared when camping. Will miss Butch as they will, but not as much……
