Vern shared with his family when he was diagnosed, that he had no regrets in his life and that he was proud of all his family and would change nothing in his life. He shared 61 years with his wife, Rosella who he loved dearly and their marriage was an example for all to follow. He leaves behind 4 adult married children, 8 grandchildren, and 1 great grandson.
Vern was a soft spoken, gentle man of God and knew no stranger.
There will be a Celebration of Life service in January. Please be in prayer for the family as they go through this time of grief for their loved one.
Vern had a heart for missions and encouraged his children to go on a Work and Witness trip by paying half their way of their first trip. The family has decided that any memorials will go towards the building of a church in Ecuador.
Vern is the father of Jon Fischer, Missionary to Ecuador.
