Howard Fisher, 81, passed peacefully on October 17, 2012, in Scottsdale, Arizona. He was born on April 7, 1931, in Fremont, Michigan to loving parents Clyde and Anna (Burt) Fisher. He married Georgia Riebow on July 16, 1954, in Big Rapids, Michigan. They moved to Scottsdale, Arizona, in 1960, where he worked in construction until a back injury made him think of creating fisher tools, a company that started in his garage in 1964. He had many passions in his life such as wood working and his companion. When Georgia passed in 2001, he was already retired. Two years later he met Ruth Wehring and together they were young at heart. He is preceded by his parents and Georgia. He is succeeded by his sons Richard E. Fisher, Robert A. Fisher, Gregory H. Fisher; 7 grandchildren; 3 great grandchildren. In lieu of flowers please make donations to Hospice of Arizona. Services were held at Green Acres Mortuary and Cemetery. www.greenacresmortuary.net
