Fred Wayne Gilfillan Obituary

Fred Wayne Gilfillan, 67, of Spartanburg County, went to be with the Lord on November 19, 2024. Born in Gaffney, SC to Harold Gilfillan, Sr. and Betty White Gilfillan.


Surviving are his sons; Christopher Kirby Gilfillan, and Caleb Kylar Gilfillan; daughters, Melissa Raynor Berry Baqui (Mark) and Hannah McGraw Greene; siblings, Harold Gilfillan, Jr. (Linda), sister in law Lisa Easler Gillfillan, sister Gina Gilfillan Coleman (Buttons); grandchildren, Meadow Brown, Beck Baqui, Mason Rogers-Baqui, Ella Kate Greene, Cashton Gilfillan, Marley Anne Baqui and Kinsley Gilfillan; nieces and nephews, Brandon Coleman (Erin), Nathan Coleman (Kelsey), Alayna Candon (Sean), James Madison Gillfillan, Alexis Faith Gilfillan, Corey Gilfillan (Jenee).


He was preceded in death by his parents, Harold Gilfillan, Sr. and Betty White Gilfillan; his spouse, Amanda Harris, daughter, Jennifer M. Hannah and his brother, James Donald Gilfillan.


His proudest accomplishment was his service in the United States Marine Corps. He loved God, his country and his family more than anything. An avid golfer, sports fanatic, Oh, how he loved his Buffalo Bills! Freddy also loved his weekly attention to his fantasy football league. He was truly the life of the party and a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. Freddy always made people smile and laugh. He truly lived life to the fullest. He loved his children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, all of his family dearly. Freddy never met a stranger, had a heart of gold, and would have given his last dollar to a stranger. He was truly one of a kind. Freddy was a hard worker, a great salesman, and a jack of all trades whose presence will be greatly missed.
