- JONESBOROUGH - Frederick Paul Tester, age 50, of Jonesborough, went to be with his Lord on October 29, 2018, at his home after a battle with stomach cancer. He was born in Elizabethton, TN to James and Elva Tester and was the youngest of ten children.
Fred, a great believer in family and responsibility, went to work at an early age as a pipefitter to help support his mother after his father's death. After many years of dedicated service, he rose to the position of crew foreman finishing his career with East Tennessee Sprinkler. Fred will be remembered as a caring and loving husband to Paula for 21 years and father to 14-year-old Shelby. A family man who was always there when needed.
Fred was preceded in death by his parents, brothers' Dallas and Michael, and sisters' Doris Branch and Debbie Stout.
Those left to cherish his memory include his two brothers, Burt and Robert Tester three sisters, Linda Tester, Norma Harrison, and Rose Branch, nephew Fred Harrison III, and many nieces and nephews.
The Tester family would like to extend our gratitude to all the staff of Ballad Hospice and Shannon Huffine, caregiver.
