Clinton Wade Frazier
Clinton Wade Frazier, 45, was born March 7, 1977, in Waco, to Chuck and Deborah Frazier. Clint went to be with his Lord and Savior early morning on Aug. 9, 2022.
While growing up Clint enjoyed participating in the FFA and had a love for cows and livestock. Clint graduated from Florence High School in 1996. Over the years, Clint worked as a supervisor in the molding department at the Fountain Foundry and as a supervisor for Frazier and Frazier Foundry in Coolidge.
In 1997 Clint met Leslie Ann Valentiner. Little did he expect in a few years he wouldn’t leave her side. On his birthday in 2000, Clint finally asked Leslie to be his girlfriend. Nine short months later he proposed, promising her a lifetime of love, laughs and orneriness. Clint and Leslie were married on March 3, 2001, at Peaceful Valley Lodge, close to their favorite trail.
In 2009 Clint moved his family to Helena, Okla. While living in Helena, Clint worked for High Sierra, Great Plains, the Helena Co-op, and finally his dream job, working as a ranch hand for Dave and Sunny Shepard.
Clint was an avid hunter, fisherman and camper. He loved to work on vehicles (except Fords!), and go boating, especially throwing his kids off the tube! He had a passion for helping his community, his friends and family. He was a member the Lions Club and specifically enjoyed helping with the pancake supper and the community Christmas tree. Though Clint was a little on the stubborn and ornery side, he always tried to make sure everyone had a smile on their face.
Clint loved to collect oil lamps and guns, but his greatest pride and joy in his life was his family. Clint absolutely adored his two grandkids and loved them more than life itself.
Clint is preceded in death by his big brother, Will Frazier; his maternal grandparents, Will Andersen and Margaret Harris, and paternal grandparents, Charles W. and Blanche Frazier.
Clint is survived by his devoted, loving wife, Leslie of Helena; his two sons, Taylor Valentiner and wife Taelor of Alva, and Dustin Frazier of Helena; his loving parents, Chuck and Deborah Frazier of Coolidge; his big sister, Angie Smagula and husband Carl of Spokane, Wash.; two beautiful grandkids, who absolutely adored their Papa, Blaklei JoAnn and Brody Michael of Alva; nieces, Brittany and Kelsi; nephews, Alex and Charlie; many family members and a plethora of good friends. Clint will be missed by many, but his legacy will live on through his kids and grandkids.
Funeral service for Clint will be Monday, Aug. 15, at 1:30 p.m. at Helena First Baptist Church. Arrangements are by Lanman Funeral Home Inc. of Helena. www.lanmanmemorials.com Facebook: Lanman Funeral Home Inc.
