Mr. Frank Terry Lauderdale, age 79, of Westmoreland, TN, passed away peacefully on January 20, 2025. A beloved husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, Frank's life was a testament to faith, love, and devotion.
Frank was the cherished husband of Idell Lauderdale, with whom he shared a deep and abiding love for nearly 53 years. Together, they built a family full of laughter, warmth, and memories. He was the proud father of three daughters: Stephanie Woodall, Christina Moore (Jimmy), and Tabitha Pardue (T.J.), all of Westmoreland. Frank's legacy lives on through his six grandchildren: Erica (John) Mines, Sierra (Brandon) Keith, Brycen Pardue, Allison Moore, Jackson Pardue, and Katie Pardue; one step-grandchild: Kaleb Moore, and three great-grandchildren: Ashton, Kaiden, and Barrett, whom he adored.
In addition to his parents, Lloyd and Allie Mae Lauderdale, he was preceded in death by his siblings, William Vinson Lauderdale, James Marshall Lauderdale and Rebecca Hall.
Frank was a born-again believer and a devoted member of Westmoreland First Baptist Church. His faith guided his life and was evident in his kindness, humility, and generosity. He worked 42 years at Cresent Manufacturing Furniture Factory before retiring.
A passionate supporter of his family, Frank loved nothing more than watching his children and grandchildren excel in sports. Whether it was cheering from the sidelines or offering words of encouragement, his pride in their achievements was immeasurable.
An avid fan, Frank enjoyed rooting for the Eagles and the Titans. He found joy in the simple pleasures of life, from spending time with his loved ones to sharing his unwavering love for his wife.
Frank's memory will be cherished by all who knew him. His legacy of love, faith, and family will endure in the hearts of those he touched.
