Mom Fisher was truly like a second mom to me. Her son Pete was like a brother to me. She was one of the finest ladies I ever met. I have eaten tons of her cookies! Sadly I could not come home to say my last goodby. God is blessed with her presence. My deepest sympathies go out to Bob and family and Diane and family.

I first met Ada when I worked at WTGrant. We became friends, she attended my wedding and saw my girls grow up. She was the sweetest lady I ever met. I've thought of her often thru the years. She will be greatly missed. You are in thoughts.

Diane, Bob and families, you have my deepest sympathy! We lived just two doors down on Wiseland and the memories I have of both your mother and dad, your grandparents and even of you both and of your brother Jack, will always be a big part of my childhood and growing up years. Your mother was a wonderful lady! My heart goes out to you all in your loss!
