In the heart of Nashville, a significant chapter closes as Ronny Greer retires from Frazier & Deeter (FD) after a remarkable 47-year career. Greer, a name synonymous with excellence in accounting, leaves behind a legacy that has shaped both his firm and the Nashville business landscape.

Greer’s journey began in 1976 at Deloitte & Touche, where he honed his skills as a Tax Consultant. In 1982, he co-founded Work & Greer, a firm that quickly became a cornerstone of Nashville’s accounting community. His leadership as Managing Partner and Director of Tax Services propelled the firm to new heights. In 2012, Work & Greer joined forces with Frazier & Deeter, marking a pivotal moment in both firms' histories. This merger blended the rich legacy of Work & Greer with FD’s innovative approach, creating a powerhouse in the accounting sector.

Throughout his career, Greer has been more than just a number cruncher. He has been a mentor, a leader, and a community pillar. His influence extends beyond the office walls.
