John B. Frazer Scholarship

John served as Mayor of Warren and played significant behind-the-scenes roles in statewide and national politics. His resolve was tested three months into his first term when a devastating tornado struck the town on Good Friday 1975. He immediately took action convincing Potlatch to rebuild the destroyed mill complex and lobbied the Arkansas Congressional delegation for millions of dollars in federal disaster relief in order to rebuild the city and save jobs. John B. Frazer Jr. established this scholarship to assist students from the Warren Public School System or the Hermitage Public School System who will be attending Arkansas State University.
