Fredrick Fowler Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Fred was born on January 21, 1943, in Peoria, IL, to the late Larry and Dorothy Fowler. He was a proud Marine veteran and a passionate supporter of his country. Throughout his life, Fred was known for his love of running, a passion he nurtured as a member of the University of Tennessee Cross Country Team. He was also an avid reader, constantly seeking knowledge and insight from books of all kinds.
Fred's competitive spirit and love for sports extended beyond his own athletic endeavors. He was a huge fan of Alabama football, often seen proudly wearing his "Roll Tide" gear and passionately cheering for the Crimson Tide. His energy, enthusiasm, and love for life will be missed by all who knew him.
Fred was preceded in death by his parents, Larry and Dorothy Fowler, and his siblings, Steve and Doreen. He is survived by his devoted wife of 39 years, Kathy Fowler; their children: Casey, Ethan, Nicholas, Zachary, and Markus; and two beloved grandchildren. He also leaves behind a host of family and friends who will cherish his memory and the many ways he touched their lives.
A memorial service will be held in his honor, with memorial donations in Fred's name directed to the American Cancer Society.
Online condolences may be shared through Facebook or at www.serenityfuneralcare.com.
Fred's love of family, country, and life will never be forgotten. He leaves behind a legacy of strength, compassion, and an unwavering sense of loyalty.

I met Fred at the YMCA back in 2021 and right away Fred and I clicked. We would give each other a hard time but also had some good conversations. I loved having Fred in my classes and our talks. We had a special relationship, and I will miss him so much. Classes won't be the same without Fred there. Every time we do a squat or use the Bosu, we all will think of him. I'm very sorry for your loss and please know Fred was loved by so many!!

I met Fred when I started going to exercise class at the Y. We would chat about fitness and general small talk. We became workout buddies and would share a laugh every now and then as we had our workout spots next to each other. I was amazed at the shape he was in for his age and I never would have guessed that he was 80. He was a favorite of the instructor as well, and she would joke with him a lot. He nicknamed me "iron hands" after I told him I was a body builder long ago. I just found out today about his passing and was very sad to hear. He was a great guy and will be missed. My sincere condolences to his family and friends.
