Fischer, Sr.

Ray Fischer, Sr., age 84, of Edgewood, Maryland, passed away on Tuesday, October 20, 2026, in Bel Air, Maryland. Born in Baltimore, Maryland, he was the son of the late Eugene Alfred Fischer, Sr., and Sadie Lee (Williams) Fischer.

Raymond shared 61 wonderful years of marriage with his beloved wife, Barabara Ellen (Schisler) Fischer, who considered him the perfect man. Ray found joy in many of life’s simple pleasures, from coaching his sons’ recreational football teams to hunting and fishing, most importantly, spending treasured time with his family. He often reminded others to “enjoy yourself,” believing that having fun and making the most of life was what it was all about. Ray always seemed to have a smile on his face and genuinely enjoyed socializing, meeting people, and sharing a good time with friends and family. He worked for 30 years at General Motors in Baltimore before retiring. In the mid-1970s, Ray also co-owned a small business specializing in custom van interiors, unique exterior paint designs, and special features. He had a passion for automobiles and fondly remembered the days spent working on them and racing cars with his friends in Dundalk.

Raymond is survived by his beloved wife, Barbara Ellen (Schisler) Fischer; his sons, Raymond Fischer Jr. and his wife, Therese, and Steven Fischer Sr. and his wife, Mary; his grandchildren, Jacob Fischer, Steven Fischer Jr., Justen Fischer, and Graham Fischer; and his great-grandchild, Declan Fischer.
