Lorraine C. Fisher, 93, of Newberry/Williamsport, passed away Monday, Dec. 14, 2020.
Born Oct. 18, 1927 in Lock Haven, she was the daughter of the late Leroy and Catherine (Wetzel) Carothers.
She married Ernest Fisher on Sept. 6, 1947. He had just returned from the Navy, when he spotted her in the church choir, and said, “That’s the girl I am going to marry!”
Lorraine was a 1945 graduate of Williamsport High School. She then worked several years as a secretary for Charles Schreyer at West Branch Bank, on Fourth and Pine streets.
When Ernest retired, they worked together with close friends, Dale and Margaret Reid, for C.A. Reed Company traveling the east coast.
Lorraine was a member of St. John’s- Newberry United Methodist Church. She loved the Lord simply, quietly and humbly. She poured out her life caring for her family.
Mom was a dedicated mother. Her candle never burned out, late at night or early in the morning, she was always serving her family and friends. Through her prayers and love, one by one her family came to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. She will be so missed.
She is survived by her children, Scott Fisher (Julie) of Williamsport, Sharon Krall (Michael) of Cogan Station, and Kent Fisher (Christina) of Linden; a daughter-in-law, Ruth Fisher of Williamsport; two brothers, Richard (Della Mae) of Williamsport, and Edward “Butch” Carothers of Jersey Shore. More than anything, she loved her 19 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren.
In addition to her parents she was preceded in death by her husband of 64 years, Ernest Fisher, on July 2, 2012, a son Craig Fisher, and a brother Robert Carothers.
