When Joe Fowler worked his way up in Knoxville-area law enforcement
for decades, little did he know that his son Jim would follow that path,
almost step for step.
Each started as a patrolman with Knoxville Police Department and each
served as U.S. Deputy Marshal for the Eastern District of Tennessee
before retiring from three decades of law enforcement.
Jim Fowler will discuss some of the parallels he and his father faced when he speaks to the Lake Forest
Presbyterian Church's Lunch Bunch at 11:30 a.m. Jan. 22 in the church Fellowship Hall. The cost of
lunch is $5.
Jim has spent almost his entire life as a resident of South Knoxville. He has been married to the
former Jenny Robinette for 29 years. His daughter Jackie is an art teacher at Bonny Kate Elementary
School and his son Jimmy attends Maryville College and is a part-time firefighter.
Mr. Fowler, a graduate of Columbia Southern University, joined the Knoxville Police Department in
August 1985 and served as a Special Police Officer and Police Officer serving in the patrol division four
years.
In August of 1989 he was hired by the U.S. Marshals Service and served as a Deputy U.S. Marshal in
both the Eastern and in the Middle District of Tennessee. In April 2003 he was promoted to Judicial
Security Inspector for the Eastern District of the state. He was was appointed by President Obama to
serve as the U.S. Marshal for the Eastern District of Tennessee and served in that capacity until his
retirement in June 2017.
As a marshal, Jim Fowler transported organized-crime boss John Gotti and was among those
who provided security at the trial of terrorists who bombed the U.S. Embassy in Tanzania and the USS
Cole.
Fowler's father, Joe, was former Knoxville police chief, Knox County sheriff and U.S. marshal. He died
in 2009 at age 82. He worked 28 years with the Knoxville Police Department, rising up from the ranks
of patrolman to serve as chief 1970-78. He was twice elected Knox County sheriff in the 1980s. In
1994, Mr. Fowler was appointed by President Bill Clinton as U.S. marshal for the Eastern District of
Tennessee. He held that position until his retirement in 2000.
Wikipedida says the United States Marshals Service (USMS) is a federal law enforcement agency
within the U.S. Department of Justice. It is the oldest American federal law enforcement agency
and was created by the Judiciary Act of 1789 during the presidency of George Washington as the
Office of the United States Marshal. The USMS as it stands today was established in 1969 to
provide guidance and assistance to Marshals throughout the federal judicial districts. It is an
agency of the United States executive branch, reporting to the United States Attorney General but
serves as the enforcement arm of the United States federal courts to ensure the effective
operation of the judiciary and integrity of the Constitution.
The Marshals Service is the primary agency for fugitive operations,
the protection of officers of the Federal Judiciary, the management
of criminal assets, the operation of the United States Federal Witness
Protection Program and the Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation
System, and execution of federal arrest warrants.

We're so happy to welcome
Stacy Lee
as the newest member of our Lake Forest family!
We are kicking off our new year in a very special way as we welcome Stacy and her
sons, Jakoby, age 6, and Gavin, age 3, to Lake Forest. Stacy has worked for
Citizens National Bank for 13 years where she is
currently a call center specialist. Perhaps
the biggest news about Stacy is that she is
engaged to Todd Boren, which will make Cathie
and Stan Boren her in-laws in just a few
months. Todd and Stacy got engaged on a cruise
in October and plan to be married October 5,
2019. Stacy is originally from Sevierville but she
and her boys live in Knoxville now.
Stacy enjoys
traveling, especially
by cruise ship, and
reading whenever
she can you see Stacy, Jakoby and Gavin be sure to
give them a hearty Lake Forest welcome!
