Freddie Diane Fuelling Nye, age 76, of Altamont, peacefully passed away on May 27, 2026 surrounded by her family, after a brief bout of cancer.

She was born June 6, 1949 in the Park City Miner's Hospital to Ernest and Vieno Kangas Fuelling. Mom was born and raised in Park City and was proud to be a true Parkite. She married her sweetheart, Tom Nye, on August 10, 1967 and enjoyed being a wife, homemaker and mom. Tom died August 12, 2022. She lived for her family, and was a dedicated mother who always put her family first. She was truly happiest when she could get everyone together. She was thrilled when she became a grandma and even more thrilled when she became a great-grandma. She sure loved the babies.

Freddie was one of the most friendly and social people your could ever meet. She would visit with anyone and everyone no matter where she was. A simple grocery trip usually took at least an hour because she knew almost everyone there and had to say, “Hi.” She worked at the Midway Mercantile, Carolyn's Frozen Yogurt, Maverick and as a clerical secretary in her early years.

She enjoyed being outside watching her humming birds, listening to her wind chimes and drinking coffee. She attended the Park City Alumni Banquets faithfully, enjoyed getting together at family reunions, going to Wendover and so much more.

Freddie is survived by her children, Tom (Tera) Nye, Jeffrey Shane Nye, Tawnya (Frank) Fowler, Kara (Cody) Maxfield; sisters, Eunice Green, Wanda McDonald; sisters-in-law, Mary (Wes) Sweat, Kay Geddes; brother-in-law, Martin Kovick; 15 grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren, and many nieces, nephews and cousins.

She was preceded in death by the love of her life of 55 years Tom Nye; her parents; in-laws, Erycel & Clara Nye; grandsons, Taygen Nye, Colson Smith; siblings, Ernie, Iclea, Karen; siblings-in-law, Allen, Norma, Jessie, Shirlene and Susan.

Our family would like to give a big thank you to all the staff and the residents at The Villa for the love and care they gave Mom the last year and a half.
