Our Brother in Christ Jesus, Robert "Bob" Earle Fisher of Callahan, Florida fell asleep Tuesday, September 24, 2024, at the age of 70. Bob lived most of his life in Florida and resided in Callahan for the last 54 years.  He was a member of the Live Oak Baptist Church of Callahan.

Bob was born in Danbury, Connecticut on August 23, 1954, to parents Robert and Elizabeth Fisher. He was raised by Robert and Ruth Fisher in Callahan and was a graduate of West Nassau High School Class of 1973. Bob entered the United States Airforce in August of 1973, where he worked as a Vehicle Operator Dispatcher and Aircraft Maintenance Specialist.  He served until being honorably discharged on August 30, 1977.

Bob held a commercial driver's license for over 40 years and worked as a commercial driver until he retired in August 2024. His career took him to all corners of the continental U.S.  You may have seen him on the roads, as he usually traveled with a pet cat and a pet Chihuahua. Bob's truck could be identified by the front license plate stating, "Trucking for Jesus."

Bob also held a private pilot's license for many years. He enjoyed flying Cessnas, especially the 150 Aerobat, for flying aerobatics. Bob especially loved spending time with his family and friends flying, playing chess, boating, scuba diving, hunting, fishing, camping, and riding ATVs in Florida and the low country of South Carolina. He loved listening to gospel music, political radio, and playing guitar with friends.

Bob is survived by his sister, Mary Fisher Brown and her husband, Richard of Terrytown, LA; former spouse and close friend, Pam Fisher of Martinsville, IN; stepson, John Zimmerly and his wife, Melissa, and stepson, Matthew Zimmerly and his wife, Jessica and their two sons, Matthew and Jacob.
