Not sure what to say?

Jim Fisher will always be Jimmy to me. I have known him almost my entire life. He was the most incredible highschool flute player in the city of Dallas. His unbelieveable intellect was never fully appreciated by any who knew him. He could write fabulous stories, and could draw the most incredible pictures! He loved to do God's work.....and he did it every day. He was the kindest and most gentle man I have ever had the pleasure to be associated with. I believe that if it is true that...

Although we never met, my late dad had many memories of both you and your
father.

To the Family of Jim Fisher, I had the plesure of working with Jim when he first started in Big Spring then later with DISD. He was such a joy and inspiration to all that knew him. He will truly be missed. I will truly miss hearing the music that he played with the flute as well as the piano. Jim may your legacy live on those whom you have touched.
Til we meet again with our Heavenly Father...

To the family and friends of James H. Fisher, please accept my condolences during the difficult time. My parents and I were very fortunate to know him. It was a pleasure to have him as one of my favorite interpreters at W. W. Samuell High School in Dallas, especially with those Latin courses I had for three years. Not only he had proficiency in interpreting skills, he was a wonderful mentor which made a difference in my life. I will never forget his famous “stamp” signature. God bless Jim.

I had the pleasure of having Jim as my interpreter at W. W. Samuell High School. He had great passion for all of the students he interpreted for at Samuell. He always came to class with a smile on his face and was very dedicated to his job. Thanks for being a great interpreter. May God bless his family during this difficult time. We know he is no longer suffering but is rejoicing in a better place.

Jim was one of my few favorite sign language interpreters and such an interesting and intellectual person. I am thankful to have had him through my school and college years. May God richly bless his family and friends with wonderful memories and comfort. Thank you, Jim, for those wonderful memories.

To Jim's family and friends,
I would like to offer my condolences to you for your very dear loss. Jim sat next to me or near me in the Mesquite Symphony for the past few years, and he had such a happy personality- he made coming to rehearsal so pleasant. Always a kind word or good morning statement, and such a sunny disposition, you just couldn't be in a bad mood around him. He has left us with many happy memories and some beautiful flute playing. We will miss him.

We will miss Jim forever, both for his spectacular flute playing, and his wonderful personal manner.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
