After a long battle with cancer, Susan Rae Fisher, 58, of St. Joseph, passed away on November 24, 2021 with her family by her side. Susan was born to Charles Robert “Bob” and Martha Jannett (Landrus) Wattenbarger on October 5, 1963. Susan loved the Lord, her family and friends.
Susan met her life-long friend and husband when they were young children. Mike William Fisher was the boy down the hill from Susan’s home growing up. Susan and Mike were reunited years later and married on March 26, 2001. Susan worked at the Dairy Queen on St. Joseph Avenue for 27 years and taught many (including her sister, daughter and nieces) how to make a perfect curl. She loved being a DQ girl and leaves behind many DQ sisters. Susan also worked at Mosaic Life Care for 24 years as an Inpatient Scheduler. She went above and beyond to ensure patients of Mosaic received their follow-up appointments upon discharge from the hospital. In everything that Susan did, she did with a servant’s heart. Susan was an amazing wife, mom, mamaw, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend. Family was everything to Susan and she loved holiday gatherings and reunions with extended family.
