Samuel Fisher Obituary

Samuel Louis Fisher - 1935 - 2015: Former Frederick, Maryland beer distributor and 'post and beam' home builder, "Lou" Fisher succumbed to his battle with cancer December 5th in the comfort of his home in Bradenton, Florida.

Born in Wilmington, Delaware to the late Samuel and Evelyn Fisher, Lou spent the majority of his life in Frederick, Maryland and later retired in Florida.

Lou was survived by his wife Teresa Fisher, sons, Michael and Keith Fisher, daughter, Stephanie Nikirk, step-son Kenneth Jordan, step-daughter, Karen Jordan and his "favorite" granddaughter, Zoe Nikirk.

Golfing in sunny Florida was one of Lou's favorite pastimes. He was especially proud of his hole-in-one on the 17th hole at his home golf course. In addition, he enjoyed spending time with his family, trying new restaurants, BBQing, reading and watching cooking shows. Lou was a contributing team member of the undefeated 1952 state record-holding Frederick High School football team.

Lou's family and close friends will celebrate his life privately at his home. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to Tidewell Hospice, 5955 Rand Boulevard, Sarasota, FL 34238
