To The Family of Dr. Isaiah Fidler,

I am so deeply saddened to just learn of the passing of a dear family friend whom I first knew only as "Shaika" when he was a student at OSU studying veterinary medicine in the late 1950's and I was about 9 years old living in Tulsa, OK. I remember, "Shaika" as very kind, generous, super-curious and passionate person then, and, as I read his remarkable professional evolution, and personal impact on others, it is apparent that he carried his...

My condolences to the family and friends of Dr. Fidler. I had the privilege of having learned a great deal in our conversations. In recent years he was most generous with his time and guidance for friends of mine who suffered from cancer. I am terribly sorry for this enormous loss for his loved ones.

Very saddened to hear of the loss of Dr. Fidler. He was a wonderful and gracious man. I am so honored to have known him and worked with him, and will remember him fondly, always.

Dearest Margaret,
We just learned of Joshs passing today. We had no idea he had been ill and feel the loss of such a great man, husband, researcher, father and probably grandfather. Please know we are thinking of you and your family at this time. Although we spent limited time with the two of you, those experiences were always special and we treasure them. Feel our heartfelt sympathy at this time of loss.

I greatly enjoyed my opportunities to work with Josh and appreciate his opinions that he shared with me. He had a good heart, a great intellect, and enormous courage to speak his mind.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

It was very saddened to know the passing of Dr. Josh Fidler. Josh was a wonderful and kind person, an outstanding scientist, and an inspiring mentor with great wisdom. As a post-doc fellow, I was lucky to be one of numerous his trainees in his laboratory, and, as a coworker, I was honored to be in the "Fidler" family in his department. Wish you rest well and you are missed.
