Fred was a great friend and muscian. Fred introduced me to the fiddle and taught me to play about 20 years ago. I'm sure he is still fiddling all those gospel tunes.

Thank you Dolly, and family for sharing and standing by Fred in his love of music which we all got to enjoy.

Fred always took such joy in being here on the planet, in playing fiddles, in working on them.  I'm honored that he took time from his busy life to talk with me.

My family and I have known both Fred and Dottie for many, many years and we have shared a lot together.  Fred was a great witness for our Lord and he always wanted to tell everyone that talked with him about our Lord.  He surely will be missed by many. Will be praying for the family.

My wife Brenda and I really enjoyed Fred's music and his friendly smile. He will be missed so we'll keep his family in our prayers.

We will miss Fred a lot. He always had a great smile and was full of enthusiasm. we will miss him greatly

We have loved Fred and Dolly for many years. Fred was a great fiddler and a great friend. He will be truely missed.

I thank the Lord for letting our paths cross.  Fred was a wonderful fiddle teacher, guitar teacher and friend to me and my son Will.  We will miss you.  Can't wait to see you in heaven. Kristie & Will McDonald

To Dorothy and Family
I have many memories, as a patient of Dr. Wegener and as my Violin Teacher. I also, enjoyed hearing you play at Townsend Welcome Center every year, you made the mountains come alive. I enjoyed our lessons, and would have much rather listened to you play. You made my heart and soul soar. Hope you are playing for our Lord, and I look forward to meeting you there.
Love you 
Diane Arwood

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

I'm sorry for your loss. He was a very kind man. He was a joy to be around.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Thank you Fred for the fond memories, and for the many examples of Christian love and friendship that you and Dolly always showed to us. We will miss you, my brother, but we will see you again in God's beautiful Heaven. - Bruce, Becky, and Melissa Greene

I will always have the memory of my grandfather John G. and Uncle Fred pitching horseshoes. Uncle Fred almost always won. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. May his fiddle always play and his wings soar. We love you Uncle Fred and you will always be in our hearts.

With deepest sympathy, you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Fred will be truly missed!  Love.  Kim Beeler

He will be truly missed! Love,  Kim Beeler

I always imagined the choirs in Heaven singing praises to the Father to sound more classical, but now I'll imagine them singing more of a bluegrass gospel with a  lively fiddle obvious throughout each song of praise.

thank you fred, for many years of laughter and smiles, your stories, jokes, listening to you play your fiddle, your flowers, and especially sharing our tomatoes. you will be missed, we loved you........larry and susan puckett (your neighbors on beelertown rd)

Fred was a great friend.  I will truely miss him.  Our loss but Fred's gain.  Heaven grows sweeter everyday.
