Lynda Sue Frazier

Lynda Sue Frazier, 88, of Flora Vista, New Mexico, passed away on March 24, 2026. She was born on October 22, 1937, in Dexter, New Mexico, to Lloyd and Trixie McNabb.

She is survived by her daughters, Dianne McCoy (Rick) and Brenda Hardy (Mark); her seven grandchildren, Lisa McClain (Nathan), Riannon Bradshaw (Rob), Nathan Hardy (Kelly), Justin McCoy, Kristin Skinner (Colt), Michael McNealy (Lauren), and Daniel McNealy (Nikki); and her fourteen great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Fred Frazier, and her daughter, Cynthia McNealy.

Lynda spent her early years in Dexter, New Mexico, where she lived on a fish hatchery where her father worked. The family later moved to Carlsbad, where her father took on many roles—bus driver, handyman, and eventually a potash miner—while her mother worked as a switch operator for Bell Telephone.

She grew up with her older brother, Lloyd Joe. Her sister, Eva Lois, passed away from pneumonia at just two years old. Many years later, Emily Kay was born, followed five years later by their youngest brother, Steven Ladd. In Carlsbad, Lynda worked at a dress shop and a pharmacy, and it was there that she met the love of her life, Fred.

Fred and Lynda welcomed three daughters in quick succession, and she devoted herself wholeheartedly to creating a loving home. They raised their girls in Los Alamos, where Fred worked as an electrician at the Labs during the atomic era. In 1971, he chose to take his skills on the road, working as a construction electrician wherever he was needed across New Mexico.

Lynda was deeply creative, with a special gift for working with fabric and thread. She kept busy with sewing, quilting, crocheting, and embroidery, often juggling several projects at once. She was a woman grounded in her faith, finding comfort and strength in daily time spent in the Bible, especially in the reminder from Colossians that she was chosen, holy, and dearly loved.

She treasured time with her family, often choosing their company above all else. Her loved ones will always remember her legendary peanut brittle, stacked enchiladas, and classic dressing.

Lynda was lovingly known as “the comeback queen,” a testament to the many times she showed remarkable strength and resilience in the face of serious illness.

Lynda’s life was a beautiful testament to her unwavering faith and deep love for her family. She carried herself with grace, kindness, and a gentle strength that touched everyone who had the blessing of knowing her. Her radiant smile could light up any room, and her warm, compassionate spirit made others feel seen, valued, and loved.

She leaves behind a legacy of faith, love, and cherished memories that will live on in the hearts of her family and friends. Though she is no longer with us, the impact of her life will continue to inspire all who knew her.

She will be deeply missed and forever remembered, held close in our hearts until we meet again.

“Well done, good and faithful servant… Enter into the joy of your Lord.” — Matthew 25:23
