Fred Steven Russell

Fred Steven Russell (Fast Freddy) crossed the Big Orange & White checkerboard bridge in the sky to be with his Lord and Savior on Wednesday 10/23/24. Fred was blessed to have many friends throughout his life. His quick witted humor, affinity for a perfect moniker and his many stories made a lasting impression that will keep his memory alive for many years to come. He was preceded in death by his father Steave Russell, mother Johnnie Fleenor, step-father Rhea Fleenor, cousin and best friend Gary "Fat Boy" Russell and best friends Richard "Captain" Fennel, Ray Hatfield and Rick Cox. His legacy is carried on by his son Eroc "Rico" Russell and daughter in law Nickie Russell, granddaughter Nora Russell, best friends Mark Daniels, Bud England and Gary Dalton, special friend Brenda Brooks and very special "like a son" friend Mark Singleton. 

As per Fred's final wishes, there will not be a funeral or memorial service. Instead, there will be a celebration of life at Our Place in Fountain City TN November 9th at 2 pm where we will have food, beer, Fast Freddy's Dill Pickles and cheer on the Vols in his memory. In lieu of flowers, live plants may be sent to Our Place.
