George D. `Biff´ Fisher III
September 24, 2025
This Saturday, September 27, 2025, will mark the 15th anniversary of your passing. Deb, for me, that is so hard to believe! Words cannot express how much I´ve missed you. Your voice, charm, beauty, personality, all these and more are etched in my memory bank. How I wish there could have been many more years to enjoy you and our life together. Time may help heal the wound but it doesn´t zero out the pain of losing you my bugsie girl. There isn´t a day that goes by I don´t think of you and what you meant to me. I´m thankful to you for being my wife and my best friend all those years. The fun we had, the memories we made, the love we shared, were wonderful. I wish you were still here with me Deb. I miss you very much. Love you.

My dearest sister, you are always in my thoughts and wish you were here to laugh together and enjoy our close bond. The memories of our life together is something I hold onto and cherish. I am always talking to you and think I know what you would be saying. As said by many you were just simply a great person with a big heart. I miss you and will love you forever dear. I was so lucky to have such a wonderful big sister like you

My cousin Debbie was the absolute sweetest human to ever have lived. She had a smile that lit up the darkest days. She was kind, gentle and genuine. She was a bright star in the constellation of our family. And her passing, several decades too early, is a wound that still pains. Why we lost you when we did, is a question greater minds than mine can answer. But I know for certain, you have joined the angels and the saints, and have seen the promise of life Everlasting

My dearest sister, it´s been eleven years since you left us and your absence still leaves a big hole in my heart. My memories of you will live on forever. And the many pictures of us together are always front and center. Love you - you will always be the best!
George Fisher
September 27, 2021
Eleven years ago today your life on earth ended. My heart broken, our future denied, your smile and voice quieted, left with only memories of our life together. What we may have lacked in quantity we more than made up for it in quality! You and I did everything together and what a great time we had. We loved each other so much and it was so very painful to lose you Bugsie Girl. As years pass, the grief subsides and the sharp constant pain diminishes. But missing you never changes. It never will. I love you Debbie Fisher!

Sharon and I cannot believe it has been ten years since your passing. It is unbelievable how fast the time has gone, but it seems like yesterday the four of us were enjoying each others company. We will never forget how you welcomed us into your home, especially at Christmas, or a weekend at the Cape. The adventures we had in different cities throughout the country, finding new and unique things to do, fantastic dinners, and you always made it special with your caring nature and beautiful smile. We miss you, but the times we spent together will always be remembered. God Bless you, and Rest in Peace.

My darling sister, it’s been ten years since you’ve been gone and a day doesn’t pass without thinking about you. You were one of a kind - just simply awesome in every way possible. You had my back from day one. Always willing to play with me and show your kindness and love. As we grew older, you were there for me and Billy and Jill. You were a second mom to them - going on our many trips to Sesame Street or the playground or wherever just to be there for them. Your great nephew, Will and your great niece, Harper would have enjoyed your beautiful ways as well. However, I know you are still there watching over them. The many lessons you taught all of us with your gentle ways are instilled within us forever. You are gone but remain in my heart and many memories. Love you dear sister. Simply the best!

On September 27th, this coming Sunday, it will have been 10 years since you passed. It’s difficult to believe you’ve been gone that long Bugs. You were always a big part of me and you continue to be even as life moves on. It’s very true, life is never the same when you lose someone who meant so much to you. The life and love we shared, the moments and wonderful times we had are now memories. We were meant to grow old together. We didn’t get that chance. I miss you very much Deb.

Deb, yesterday 9/27/12 was the second anniversary of your passing. I've missed you constantly during the past two years. Not a moment goes by without thinking how wonderful and beautiful you were babes. Our life together was wonderful. I'm proud to have been your husband for all those years. You always said "we make a good team". Your voice, the gorgeous smile, the laughter, all great memories I have of you, of us, for the rest of my life. I miss you my Bugsie Girl and will love you forever. May you rest in peace sweetie.

Deb, One year ago I lost my closest buddy, my loving sister. My 55 years of memories are so fresh in my heart and mind I know I will never loose them and that is a blessing. As sisters we never fought because our love for each other was greater than anything else. You were my older sister - always looking out for me. You my sis were such a class act. I feel your presence with every step I take today with your larger than life smile knowing you are still looking after your little sister and being my strength. Love you forever, Karen
P.S. Can you get together with Dad and cheer those Red Sox on for the next few days. I thought maybe you have a few connections and this could be the time to use them. Thanks sweetie.
September 27, 2011
Deb you would surely be amazed at how profound your loss has been felt and proud of your family and friends for celebrating you. I know it happens everywhere that George goes, that you are alive in his heart and mind...what a tribute that so many people feel so much. George, I know you must have thought time would stand still when Deb died, how did we get to a year? You have made it through because of your deep and abiding love for Deb, may it continue to sustain you. Thinking of you today and wishing Deb had been with us to celebrate the 4th,

"I give you this one thought to keep, I am with you still, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not think of me as gone, I am with you still, in each new dawn."
One year ago tomorrow, God received a beautiful, smiling Angel. It hasn't been easy Deb, but we have thought of you every minute, kept you alive in everything, and know you're with us every minute. Peex-I know you know that Deb is watching over you. Keep living life the way she wanted you to live..full of fun, laughter and memories of your times with her. She is always smiling. I love you both so much.
Love,
Cait

Deb, tomorrow, September 27, 2011 will mark the one year anniversary since you've been gone. I miss you so much babes. Your smile, your loving touch, the soft voice, I miss everything about you. I loved you so much Debbie. And the beautiful part of it is, I know you loved me back. They say the deeper the love the more intense the grief. Grief can be overwhelming. Many tears have been shed. I miss you.

Biff, It has been nearly a year and I just found this. Know that, though we live far apart and it has been years since I have seen you, I think of you often and pray that you are able to find serenity. Deb is watching over you with an endless love. Just wanted you to know that your Michigan cousin cares.

Deb was someone so special .I still cannot believe that mega-watt smile is no longer here. God must have really needed a new sunbeam. I think of her often and miss her. My life was much brighter because I knew her.

Deb: I'm away in Florida for the first time without you. How you loved this trip. I miss you so much sweetie. You're always on my mind. I see your beautiful smile, I feel the warmth of your touch, I hear your gentle voice. I miss you so much Bugs. I will always love you Debbie Fisher.
November 30, 2010
Hi Deb,
It still doesn't seem real that you aren't with us. I miss you everyday, but I know you're looking down and are with us through everything. Peex has been doing some really fun things..he visited Matt at Myrtle with Pat and Dad, and had a blast golfing and just relaxing in the sun. You guys have the most amazing friends that have been beyond wonderful for and to him whether it's golfing, dinners, or fooball games. I know you're proud of him, Karen and all of us. Peex gave me his approval of my new boyfriend the other day at Thanksgiving and I know you would love Jon too. When I decorate the tree this year, I can't wait to hang my ornaments from you. Thanks for always thinking of me and Jill and giving us our "special girl" ornaments all those years..I'm so grateful for having them as memories.
I love and miss you Deb. Keep watching over us and being our guardian angel.
Love,
Cait

Debbie was one of a kind, so selfless, always caring about others, kind and considerate to everyone. If you are lucky, you meet someone like Debbie maybe once in a lifetime.She made you want to be a better person just by being herself. We were so fortunate to have Deb’s friendship over the last ten years and she will be missed so much by both of us. We will always have such wonderful memories of times together especially at the cape, like our annual 4th of July block parties, trips to Cold Storage Beach, nights out to hear live music, talks and drinks on George and Debbie’s deck. We will remember the elegant X- mas parties that George and Debbie hosted at their condo in Glastonbury along with all the times we got together for dinner. We will especially hold dear to our heart, this year’s sunset get together on July 3rd at West Dennis Beach. Debbie will always be missed but never forgotten by our group in Siasconsett Village.

Biff,
I can only imagine how you are feeling. My heart aches for you cuz... Deb was so special and the center of your life. We are all better because we knew her. Her radiance touched everyone she came in contact with. My love and prayers for you and your family...
October 3, 2010
Deb,
Words can't describe how much we are all missing you. These past few days have been such a tribute to you and your amazing love of life and for others. Everyone that has been blessed to know you, loved you. Your smile and thoughtfulness are one in a million. You and Peeks sang so lovely on my voicemail for my birthday two weeks ago, that I saved my message. Thank you for being such an important part of my life. Remember when you first came to Vermont and I was an annoying 5 year old that followed you around because I adored you? Thank you for the memories that I will carry on forever. I love you and miss you.
Karen, You and Debbie truly had a special sisterly bond, and I can't begin to explain how sorry I am for losing your best friend. She thought the world of you, and is looking down with her beautiful smile thanking you for everything. You, Bill, Billy and Jill will always be our family and we will always be here for you.
Uncle Peeks,
The older I became, the more I realized that you and Deb were a true love story. From the first time she entered my life, I have been blessed because of her love for me, Pat and Matt, but more importantly her love for you. Your Debbie is so proud of you and loves you so much. Remember that you have a beautiful angel looking down you on every minute. I will always be here to help you carry on Deb's memory. I love you
Love always, Cait

Dear George,
Just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you and sending you my deepest sympathy. I have a permanent print in my mind of Debbie from July 3rd as we sat on Mayflower enjoying the evening and setting sun. As someone else has written, it was clear that after almost 20 years of marriage you two were still deeply in love and it was beautiful to see and hear about! She was the flame and drew moths to it, a lovely warm funny, brave, woman, so glad I got a chance to know her.

My deepest sympathy for your loss. I worked with Debbie a long time ago in Farmington. Her laugh, smile and positive attitude were a joy to be around and always made the day go a little easier. Although she has passed this life, those memories will live for me and all who knew her. God bless you and the rest of her family in this time of sorrow.

I am so sorry to hear about Debbie's passing. It is going to be a big void in our family. The love the two of you shared was very touching. I do believe you were soulmates. Debbie is a angle in heaven and will be watching down on her loved ones. Debbie was very strong and had a very positive attitude all through her illness. She will be deeply missed. God Bless.
September 30, 2010
Karen, your sister was a treasure. She was gentle, sweet and loving. Her passing leaves this world a little darker and a little colder. Her loving manner were evident from her girlhood. She was probably the sweetest and most even-tempered person I have ever known. Debbie was the sister we all wanted to have. No words can take away the sorrow you feel of losing her, but I hope in time that the memories of her wondrous spirit ease your sadness. ...her cousin and yours Roxanne
