BETTY FISHER

Nov. 12, 1925 – Dec. 12, 2024

Mildred (Betty) Elizabeth Fisher passed away peacefully in her home on December 12, 2024, at the age of 99. She had enjoyed relatively good health and loved the family visits. A recent highlight was to hold her new grandson, Charles "Charlie" E. Fisher V. Even as her once sharp mind declined in the last days, she continued to recite scripture and sing her favorite hymns.

Betty was born on November 12, 1925, in Philadelphia, PA. She met her husband, Charles "Charlie" Fisher II at Kings College, DE and they were married in 1947. They moved to Imperial in 1965, ministering in the villages south of Mexicali for 45 years.

They celebrated 65 years of marriage before Charlie went home to be with the Lord. They have three children, Charles "Chuck" E. III (Shannon), Fred (Karen), and Patti. Betty is also survived by their grandchildren, Danny (Val), Kyle, Monique (Andrew), Charles "Chip" IV (Heather), Rebecca, Johnny (Kelsey), Sarah, Diana and Christopher, and great-grandchildren, Stephanie, Autumn, Luna, Alyssa, Kaite, Rachel, and Charles "Charlie" V.

Betty was a blessing to have so many people who came to know her throughout her lifetime. The family is grateful to all those who showered us with love, compassionate care, prayer, and support during this time. A Celebration of Life service will be held at 12 p.m. on Sunday, January 26, 2025, at Grace and Truth Fellowship, 430 N. 2nd St., Brawley, CA 92227.

We celebrate for we know she is in Heaven. In lieu of flowers Betty would want you to know that you too can join her in heaven someday. "I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life." 1 John 5:13 NIV. And when you do, walk up to her and say I loved your obituary.

Fisher Family- your folks were well known for their passion to share the gospel with anyone but especially those in the Mexicali area. I doubt there was anyone in Imperial who did not talk with at least one of them at some point. Through the years the containers on the side yard opened the door for sharing their faith and mission to help people. Betty loved her Lord and her family. I am blessed to have known her and rejoice she is in heaven now with Charlie.

My condolences to Betty Fisher family. Your mom was so sweet to all of us when we saw her especially on Halloween and trick oh treating at your moms. Your mom made popcorn balls for her trick o treaters. As a kid living right down the street my siblings and I always went to her house to get our treats I even took my kids trick o treating and Betty gave Me a treat as a adult. We will all miss her.

Prayers for Chuck, Fred, and Patty.
I have so many fond memories of Betty. She was my other mother for most of my child hood.
I remember making popcorn balls every Halloween. Her awesome tacos. Bug juice, the juice she would make for us.
One day, she was taking Patty and I to school in the brown truck. As she was turning the corner the door opened and Patty an I were hanging out the door. She would always let us go thru the stuff. At Christmas time they would make care packages to take down into Mexico as they were missionaries. Patty and I would pack soap in coffee cans. There were tables set up in the living room packed full of toys and what have you and we would take drawstring bags and fill them for the kids.
Then being stupid kids doing stupid things, Patty and I fell out of friendship. As kids we were inseparable, If I wasn't at her house she was at mine.
Rest in paradise Betty, you were loved and will be missed

I was just thinking about Betty recently. She was such a wonderful and kind lady, throughout most of my life. Always enjoyed her smile and hugs. I am so sorry that she is gone, and so happy that she is with her Lord and her Charlie. Prayers, hugs, and love to all her family.
