Memories and Condolences
for Ada Fisher

Not sure what to say?





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.

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!
