I met Mr. and Mrs. Fischer sometime in August 2022 and working with them was an unforgettable experience. The couple's drive to get better for each other by doing their best in their exercises was very admirable. Mr. James shared some stories of his stint in the Philippines that I appreciated. I will miss working with him because up to the end, he managed to make us all feel good doing our jobs with his humor and work ethic.

Mr. James Fischer was a great person to work with. I started seeing him and her lovely wife Theresa in late February this year as their Physical Therapist. It was a pleasure working with them because both of them were eager to work with me. There may be times that Mr. Jim felt weak but his strong spirit and determination to get better always pushed him to get through his exercises. I admired his humor and care toward Ms. Theresa. He was always mindful of other people and would constantly remind us to be careful around him since he didn't want to step on our toes while using his walker or wheelchair. He would also try to keep a cheerful atmosphere by teasing us all, especially Ms. Theresa.
We will miss that in our sessions and we are happy to have met Mr. Jim and his family.

Hi Greg,
Please accept my sincere condolences for the BIG loss of the Fischer Family.
As you you know, I never met Mr. Fischer but I feel as I knew the man for the last 20+ years that I have known you. Your well-told stories about him has always been a part of EVERY conversation that we (circle of friends in LA) have had, and if I may add, these stories have mostly brought laughter to our faces - and that has been an absolute blessing.
May God Bless His soul.
