Peter Fisher Obituary
Peter Kenyon Fisher, age 72, of Dracut, Ma. passed away on October 17, 2021 following a brief and valiant struggle with glioblastoma.
He was born in Waltham, MA on July 13, 1949, the second of five children of John and Madge Fisher of Lincoln, MA. His early years were full of high energy and a healthy dose of mischief. He attended the Belmont Hill School where he excelled in football, hockey and baseball. In 1973, he graduated from UMass-Amherst with a degree in Business.
He tried a traditional career path in banking and car sales, but found his true passion building and repairing high performance motorcycles for 27 years at R&R Cycles in Manchester NH.
When he wasn't working at R&R or building and riding his own custom made motorcycles across America, Peter kept busy exercising so as to stay in top physical shape (maintaining his college weight of 185 pounds to the end).
He was loved by the many friends he made in his travels, Dracut neighbors and his family, particularly his eight nephews and nieces-Tim, Dorrie, Laura, Ben, Sarah, Emma, Sam and Sophie- each of whom held a special place in his heart.
He will be dearly missed. Donations in Peter's name can be made to the Employee Assistance Fund, Carleton Willard Village, cwvillage.org or the Glioblastoma Foundation at glioblastomafoundation.org. The internment will be private.
Due to Covid, no services are currently planned.
