Fredrick Jeter Obituary


Fredrick Lee Jeter

Fredrick Lee Jeter, 77, Arlington, Washington, died Sunday, May 8, 2011. He was in the company of his family at Cascade Valley Senior Living in Arlington, Washington. Fred was born in Lyndon, Kansas July 23, 1933 to Hazel L. and Willard L. Jeter.
Fred was a long time resident of Omak, Washington and many will remember Fred as the dedicated man/friend at the Omak sawmill where he worked for over 35 years. Anyone can tell you Fred was a very friendly, peaceful man that loved traveling in his motor home, assembling jigsaw puzzles, or catching that big trout at Fish Lake on a beautiful day. No one would ever refer to Fred as lazy; he was always willing to work hard and to keep working until the job was done.
He was preceded in death by both parents, a daughter Patricia Jeter, and a sister Anna M. Potts.
He is survived by his wife, Shirley Jeter; son, Carl Jeter; daughter, Diane Black; sisters, Mary Martin of Nixa MO and Jean Coale of Stockton, MO; grandsons Robert Black and Scott Black; great grandchildren, nieces, nephews, great-nephews and great-nieces -too many to name.

We have missed staying in touch, but do have some good memories of times past we spent together. I will never forget our family camping trip to Washington when I was just a kid, ten years old; and the float trip in southern Missouri in the 80's. Our deepest sympathy. I am sure mom would write something too, if she was able. A niece, Debbie Coale Johnson (Stockton, MO)

Although I might not have pictures of some of my favorite memories such as vacation on the beach in Southern California, Yosemite Park and cutting wood. I will always remember our heartfelt talks. Never to be forgotten & miss you always.
