Andrew Fisher Obituary - Death Notice and Service Information

LOCATION

Manhattan, New York

Andrew Fisher was driving his family to Kennedy International Airport in August when he noticed that his newly wed sister, Maria, was still carrying her bouquet. He pulled over to the curb, opened the door, and made everyone get out. Then, as angry drivers honked, he gleefully snapped pictures of the bride tossing her bouquet.

"It was very funny," said Christina Fisher, the sister who caught the bouquet. "My brother was kind of a big kid. He always had a need for laughter and was very playful. That was the side of him that I miss most."

Mr. Fisher, 42, a sales manager for Imagine Software, was attending a seminar at Cantor Fitzgerald on the day the World Trade Center was attacked. A veteran traveler, he had lived in Amsterdam; Sydney, Australia; and Edmonton, Alberta; before settling into the East Side of Manhattan. He swam laps every morning and competed in races, but never talked about how he did. When his family unpacked his gym bag, they found a third-place medal buried under goggles and swimming trunks.

My sweet prince, you appeared in my dreams as a child with all your light... for years I wished I could hug you again... I still remember your hands, tapered fingers, your skin, so white.
You are here, kept in my heart, and the memory of that eighteen year old looking for his own path, who came out of nowhere, never abandons me... so you live in me, and in all those in whom you left your luminous trail.. .
My beloved little cousin, the void will never be filled, but the sweet memory...

Dear Fisher Family,

Every September 11th I think of Andy.

My husband Paul and I graduated from SJB with him and he was Paul's roommate at SUNY Oswego. We have many fond memories of him. He was a quiet, gentle soul who had a great sense of humor.

Please know that we continue to pray for Andy and for all of you, too. It is our hope that through prayer and great memories Andy is not forgotten.

I hope this brings some small amount of comfort to you.

In...

Dear Fisher Family,
I did not know Andrew personally, I am actually reading about him for the first time. I joined the FB group Remember me and was assigned Andrew's name. What I am able to find out, he sounds like a stand up guy! Someone I would have loved to have met! What a sense of humor! I am so sorry for your loss! I just wanted you to know that he will never be forgotten and my family and I will continue to keep you all in our prayers, long after 9/11! Blessings to you!
