Dr. Paul K. Frederick
October 6, 1943 – August 4, 2022
Dr. Paul K. Frederick, 78, passed away August 4, 2022 surrounded by his family.
He was born to Kenneth Frederick and Eleanor (Loudon) Frederick in Lake Forest, Illinois on October 6, 1943.
Mr. Frederick graduated from Grinnell College in Iowa before attending medical school at Albany Medical College. He arrived at Indiana University in 1969 where he completed an internal medicine residency and a two year fellowship in gastroenterology. He was a founding member of Indiana Gastroenterology, which was established in 1975. Mr. Frederick also practiced medicine at Riverview Hospital in Noblesville and St. Vincent Hospital in Carmel and Indianapolis.
He moved to Westfield in 1980 when he married Judy in the back pasture of the home where they lived and loved for 42 years. His passion was practicing medicine and he was truly sad to retire after 53 years. In his free time, Mr. Frederick enjoyed gardening and excelled at tomatoes. He was an avid sports fan and never missed the Hoosiers, the Colts, or the Cubs. He was a proud pet dad to Rusty and Bowie. He cooked a mean trash can turkey, was a big fan of Diet Coke, loved every show on the ION network and was always up for his favorite dessert, a peanut buster parfait.
Survivors include his loving wife and best friend Judy; five children Kim (Darren), Kelli (Scott), Kirstie, Colby (Precilla) and Gary (Kelly); eight grandchildren Elias, Taylor, Jacob, Irie, Dane, Charlie, Bo and Finn; and brother Eric.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his brother Mark, who passed away in 2021.
A memorial visitation is scheduled to be held from 2-6 p.m. on Saturday, August 13, 2022 at Randall and Roberts Funeral Center, 1685 Westfield Road in Noblesville.
