Robert Fischer's Home Going

Robert Fischer went home to be with Jesus on 19 November 2011. Bob had a deep faith in God, in the God of Israel, and in the Messiah of Israel. And all of his life revolved around this faith. His "home going" celebration on Thanksgiving day 2011 was attended by his wife, three daughters, brother and 96 other friends in Isarel. He was greatly loved and he loved every one.

Bob and Donna Fischer

Bob and Donna were Air Force lieutenants when they met at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida. They were married in 1960 and began their life together colored by three exciting and challenging careers. Donna left the Air Force in 1960 to embark on the joys of motherhood. Bob retired as a Lieutenant Colonel in 1984, and immediately began a second career in International Marketing with the Boeing Company. Bob left Boeing in 1992 in response to a call from the Lord, confirmed by Donna, to make aliyah to Israel.

Bob is a Messianic Jew. Donna is "married into the covenant." Bob holds a B.A. from the University of Rochester and a Master of Arts and Doctor of Humane Letters from Faith Seminary, Tacoma, Washington. Donna received a B.S. in Nursing from the University of Tennessee and has held a variety of critical care nursing positions in the ever changing locations dictated by Bob's many career driven relocations.

Bob and Donna are greatly blessed with three daughters: Robin, Cindy and Julie. They have been even further blessed with four grandchildren: Michele, Paul, Daniel and Adam. Bob lived from June 18, 1934 - Nov 19, 2011, but his contribution to the cause of Christ in this earth still lives through his writings available here.
