Frazier Tate

Mrs. Mary Ola Frazier Tate, age 78, a native and resident of Grove Hill, AL, was born July 28, 1941 to the parentage of the late Mr. Brady Frazier, Sr. and the late Mrs. Mary Lee Coats Frazier. She departed this life peacefully at her home June 9, 2020.

Mrs. Frazier was a member of Mt. Zion #2 Baptist Church, Grove Hill, AL. She retired as a custodian with Alabama Power Company and was an avid Alabama Crimson Tide Football Fan. She enjoyed fishing and cooking. She was a Godly lady who truly loved the Lord. "Big Moma", as she was lovingly known, was a quiet homebody who instilled Godly morals into her children; a loving mother and grandmother who found joy in making her home a place of comfort, peace, and most of all, love.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Clay King Tate; a son, Clarence Frazier; a daughter, Patsene Ivory; three brothers, Brady Frazier, Jr., Leo Frazier, and Willie Coats.

Wonderful memories of her will linger forever in the hearts of five sons, devoted and loving caregiver, Calvin King (Chaisty Robin) Tate; Max (Jackie) Frazier; and Jimmy Frazier, all of Grove Hill, AL; Leron Tate of Atlanta, GA; Eddie (Angie) Frazier of Apex, NC; two daughters, Debra Frazier of Grove Hill, AL and Marilyn (Advester) Parker of Whatley, AL; three brothers, Thomas James Frazier of Detroit, MI; Rev. Leonard (Beretha) Frazier of Mt. Vernon, AL; and Larry Frazier of Jackson, AL; five sisters, Eunice Frazier, of Grove Hill, AL; Verda Mae Frazier of Montgomery, AL; Ethel Lee Frazier of Thomasville, AL; Betty Jean Frazier of Mobile, AL, and Pauline Foreman of Birmingham, AL; 17 grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren, and a host of other relatives and friends.
