Elvin Fisher Obituary

Fisher, Elvin J.
Ontario: Entered into rest on July 14, 2008 at Blossom View Nursing Home, Sodus in his 98th year. Born October 4, 1909 in Ontario, the son of the late Mervyn & Mertie (DeDee) Fisher. His wife, family, fruit farming and photography was the love of his life. He was a longtime member of the First Baptist Church in Ontario. He loved the days he spent on the St. Lawrence River in the 1000 Islands. He always had a great sense of humor right to the end. He was called Poppy by his grandchildren because he always had popcorn ready for them. He was predeceased by his beloved wife, Velma (Alborn) Fisher in 2000. Survived by his loving and devoted children: daughter, Leora "Lee" (David) Morris of Williamson; sons, Robert (Judy) Fisher of Salem, VA, Carl (Carol) Fisher of Ontario; 7 special grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren and 1 great-great grandson; brother, Allison (Betty) Fisher of Ontario; sister-in-law, Josie Alborn of Ontario; nieces, nephews and special friends.
Family and friends are invited to call Wednesday evening, July 16th from 6-8 PM at the Young Funeral Home, 4025 W. Main St., Williamson. A Celebration of his Life will be held at the First Baptist Church of Ontario, Thursday morning at 11 AM followed with Interment in Furnaceville Cemetery, Ontario. In lieu of flowers, expressions of sympathy may be directed in his memory to Blossom View Nursing Home Activities Fund, 6884 Maple Ave., Sodus, NY 14551. We want to thank the staff on Empire Wing at Blossom View Nursing Home for the loving care and attention they gave our Dad.
