802 Fred Zapp Obituary
Fred Ray Zapp, Jr. of Brentwood, TN passed away on February 29, 2020 at the age of 82. Fred was the son to the late Ida Tippin Zapp and Fred Ray Zapp, Sr. He was preceded in death by his wife of 52 years, Sue M.

Fred attended David Lipscomb for his primary and secondary education. He received his undergraduate degree from David Lipscomb University and master’s degree from Middle Tennessee State University. He loved playing baseball and basketball growing up as well as playing in college. He was a teacher and coach at Hillwood High School for 30 years, moved to Brentwood Middle School as an assistant principal and athletics director for over 10 years, and retired as a substitute teacher. He impacted the lives of countless students, athletes, parents and fellow staff with his contagious personality and love for life.

Fred was a friend to many, a mentor, coach, teacher, husband and the best Dad two boys could have. He loved his sons and watching them compete, never missing a game or wresting match. He was often found working in the concession stand or overseeing the “hospitality room” for all the coaches and staff. He had a passion for golf and visiting his boys in Auburn on Football Saturdays. If he were able, he would have loved nothing more than attending every game or event for his six grandchildren. Fred loved life and will be dearly missed. May we all strive to impact lives the way that Fred did.

To celebrate his life, his family will host a visitation from 5:00 - 7:00 pm on Thursday, March 12th with a Memorial Service at 10:30 am on Friday, March 13th. Visitation and Service will be held at Christ Presbyterian Church, 2323 Old Hickory Blvd, Nashville, TN 37215.

Dear Sir,

I am the great grandson of Mr. William Ellihue (Elihue?) Williams as
listed on your web page http://www.gmccuistion.com/john1855/b10912.htm#P10914
I am having a terrible time discovering the identity of his parents
and was wondering if you could perhaps provide me any leads on such.
The only lead I have is the attached photo of a 1900 census form
where he lists the birthplace of his father as North Carolina (line
78). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Terry Rankhorn

When at sea, he worked as a Sonar Tech and instructed while stationed in San Diego, CA and U.S. Naval Complex Rhode Island. George Michael was a true sailor, loving the open seas and experiencing the many treasures the world has to offer. After 20 years of service, George Michael retired from the U.S. Navy in 1997, at which time he moved back to the Entiat Valley, where he soon met and married Heidi Rhianon Allen in April 1999, adopting her two sons, Morgan and Michael, as his own. In 2000, they were blessed with the birth of their youngest child, Evan.
