John Fredrick "Fred" Showalter, 69, of Fishers, passed away on the afternoon of Saturday, October 15, 2016 at St. Vincent Hospice in Indianapolis. He was born on January 10, 1947 to the late Harvey M. and Henrietta L. (Rider) Showalter in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Fred was a 1966 graduate of Southport High School, and received an Associates degree from the College of DuPage in Chicago. He retired in 2006, after working for 18 years as a skilled tradesman for the Chrysler Corporation. Fred attended Promise Church in Fishers and was a former member of United Auto Workers. He was currently a member of Autocycles of Marion as well as the NRA. He enjoyed working on his PULSE (a ground-cruising recreational vehicle built on a motorcycle frame) and woodworking. His illness prevented him from finishing the clocks that he was in the process of making for each of his grandchildren. Fred loved to spend time with his family, and especially enjoyed fishing with his grandchildren. He was a friend to everyone and his wit and personality will be missed by all who knew him.
Fred is survived by his wife, Judy A. (Johnson) Showalter; daughter, Nadine Patrick; son, Michael (Ann Marie) Showalter; five grandchildren, Lilly & Jack Patrick, and Katherine, Emily, & William Showalter; sisters, Mary Alice (Dale) Smith, and Marcia (Tom) Stiens; brothers, Lloyd (Debbie) Showalter, and Robert Showalter; uncle, Dr. John Rider; and several nieces & nephews.
