James FISHER Obituary

June 1941 - July 2015 Jim (known as Jimmy to friends and family) upon graduating L. A. High School in 1959, earned a Business degree from USC. He then joined the Navy and became a pilot, flying P3 recon planes in Vietnam. After the Navy, he flew for Western and Delta Airlines, flying 727s and ending with the L1011. He loved waterskiing on the Delta with Hal and Family. He enjoyed golf, and was a major fan of Judge Judy. Jimmy is survived by his daughter, Laura Fisher, his son, James III, and his siblings, Jill, Sally, Steve, Mary and Ben. His quick wit, great sense of humor, and ability to "stir the pot", will be missed. Miramar National Cemetery burial with honors, 8/13/15.

Jim "FISHMAN" was a good friend of mine at Western Airlines. We had many enjoyable layovers together flying both the 737 & 727. Fishman could always bring a smile to my face with his very accurate observations of life and fellow pilots. One time a fellow pilot who was known for his cologne and expensive wristwatches was pontificating on the wonders of his latest sports car and Jimmy observed; "Roger, if someone sold designer antifreeze you would be first in line." I will miss you Fishman.
