John is survived by his son and daughter-in-law Charlie and Laura Wilson of Elmira, NY, son Matthew Fischer of Wilmington, NC, and son and daughter-in-law Justin and Kristy Fischer of Gansevoort, NY, as well as his grandchildren Joshua, Jeffery, and Adam Wilson, Marcy and Marley Fischer, and Jacob, Kaitlynn, Elijah, and Benjamin Fischer. He is also survived by his mother Camilla Fischer of Valley Stream, NY, his sister AnnMarie O’Malley of Valley Stream, NY, his brother Larry Fischer of Myrtle Beach, SC, and his sister Toni Dempsey of Long Beach, NY. John was predeceased by his father, John Edward Fischer.
