Basilica of Saints Peter & Paul parishioner Nancy Fisher passed away on May 27, 2025, after enduring pancreatic cancer for several months. A devoted wife, mother, and grandmother, Nancy was married to her husband Dan for nearly 50 years, raising two sons and two daughters, and caring for 19 foster babies through Bethany Christian Services and one long-term foster daughter. Nancy was a leader in many ministries, most recently the Forever Young Catholics, and she was a past co-founding member of the Basilica's Gloria Dei Schola. She was a crafter, artist, enthusiastic Tennessee naturalist and birdwatcher. Nancy loved hiking in God’s creation especially the Great Smokey Mountains. She is survived by her devoted husband, sons and daughters, including 16 grandchildren.
The family will receive friends on Friday 5-30-2025 from 4-7 pm at Chattanooga Funeral Home North Chapel, Hixson and Saturday 5-31-25 from 9:30 am-10:00 am at Basilica of Saints Peter & Paul. There will be a mass at 10:00 am with interment to follow in Hamilton Memorial Gardens.
Please pray for Nancy's husband Dan and the Fisher family during this difficult time.
Arrangements are under the care of the North Chapel of Chattanooga Funeral Home, Crematory and Florist, 5401 Highway 153, Hixson. Please share your thoughts and memories at www.chattanooganorthchapel.com
