Friends and loved ones said Frazier was a local pastor in Orlando.
“I’m heartbroken. Devastated. Loss for words, honestly, because Jonathan is a very great person, a great father, a great pastor, a great brother, a great friend,” family friend Tina Redding said. “He changed his life around for the good.”
Redding said she was there Saturday when bullets started flying.
