Charles Paul Frederick, II

Charles “Paul” Frederick, II, age 52, a native of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, answered when God called him by name and asked him to return home on Friday, October 21, 2022. Paul fought a short but courageous battle with cancer with hope and determination. He was granted mercy by passing quickly and peacefully at home surrounded by his wife, family, and friends. For 12 years, Paul was married to the love of his life, Tracy Frederick. Together, they shared a love for their fur baby, Lily Vegas, music, and everything LSU. They often entertained family and friends where Paul was the grill master on his Green Egg. Paul adored his two children, Hannah Katherine Frederick and Cameron James Frederick. Sharing his quick wit and humor with them created a special bond that will never be broken. In 1987, Paul graduated high school from Parkview Baptist. He went on to become an LSU Fighting Tiger earning a degree in Geology in 1995. While attending LSU, he started his 30-year career at US Geological Survey (USGS). This is when Paul officially became a “Rock Hound,” collecting rocks from his various work travels. Paul is also survived by his parents, Charles Paul Frederick, Sr., and Katherine Susan Chadwick Frederick; his brother, Clay Frederick and wife, Kelli; his nephew, Nick Frederick and his two nieces, Madelyn and Gabbie Frederick. Paul was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Hodgie Paul Frederick and Inez Ocmand Frederick; and his maternal grandparents, John Harold Chadwick and Doris Mobley Chadwick. We will honor Paul in a celebration of his life on Sunday, November 6, 2022. In memory of his outgoing personality, we ask that you wear your favorite LSU attire or a bright color of your choice. Visitation will be held at Seale Funeral Home, Denham Springs, Louisiana, beginning at 12:00 p.m. with services starting at 2:00 p.m. There will be no graveside services. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Denham Springs Animal Shelter or Cancer Services of Greater Baton Rouge.
