Condolence: Norma,
I am so saddened to hear of George's passing. I had great respect for George as I knew him from my work with him when I was at Ag Canada and George was at the regional vet lab in Kemptville as well as through Rotary; me at West Ottawa and George as a DG and the Kemptville Rotary club. George was truly "Mr. Rotary". I admired his dedication to Rotary and its work. I have just completed my year (2013-14" as District Governor of District 6740 in eastern Kentucky. George and other PDG's I knew from District 7040 served as a model for me in my DG year.

Condolence: Norma, Bob, Karen - I was so sorry to hear of George's passing. What a terrific man. I have many fond memories of George from my days at St. James, and I ALWAYS think of him whenever I hear Hymn #309! I bet there is a rock band at his church up in heaven.

Condolence From: Lieutenant-Commander Clark Patterson
Condolence: Norma and family. I was saddened to hear of George's passing. Kemptville has lost a true gentleman. Whether as an unruly St James choirboy or at my current rank, I will always remember George as a kind and friendly man, with a memory better than I could currently hope for. I fondly remember one of our last meetings at the Naval Centennial Gala at the Canadian War Museum, where George and Norma outlasted many younger couples and captivated their table with their wit, charm and incredible stories of their service to Canada! Fair winds and following seas Dr. Fisher.

Condolence: My condolences to the entire Fisher family. George was a man to be admired and respected. To me, he was the epitome of the "old school" gentleman, but much more than that. I was often amazed by his sense of humor and willingness to engage in so many activities, and I will never forget how he danced! Although this is a time of deep sorrow, I know that all of you will have many, many special memories of this special man to help him live on in your hearts.
