Darald Fischer Obituary
Delmar - Darald Allen Fischer, 84, of Delmar, passed away on Monday, June 8, 2020 at Seasons Hospice at Christiana Hospital.
He was born on August 10, 1935 in Deerfield, Michigan, the son of the late Christof and Hazel Fischer.
Darald grew up in Michigan where he met his wife during his high school years. After graduation, he attended Central Michigan University, and remained a faithful Michigan college sports fan throughout the years. He worked for Dresser Wayne Industries in Salisbury for 25 years. After retirement, he went to work for a cruise line in Ocean City for a year and then he worked in the tool department in Lowe's in Salisbury for 10 years. He loved to travel with his family, read, take naps, and go out to eat for breakfast or to Delmar Pizza for dinner. He was a skilled woodworker and every Christmas he gave his children a gift he had made special for them. He was blessed to have shared a beautiful life together with his wife and family.
He is survived by his loving wife of almost 65 years, Shirley A. Fischer; children, Darald Allen Fischer, Jr. (Carol) of Elsmere, Kentucky, Sheryl Ann Curtis (Frank) of Delmar, Dave Fischer (Kim) of Laurel, Kevin L.
