Leone Fisher

Obituary Leone Fisher, 97, of Otway, passed away on Sunday, June 18, 2023 at home. Leone was a farm girl from Kansas who loved to garden, tending to her plants right up to her final days. She was a wonderful pianist who danced to big band music, and a fabulous cook - she made the best potato salad on earth. She was always open to new possibilities and lived life with much love, laughter and gusto. She earned a Masters degree from Kansas University, moved to Columbus, Ohio, and then on to Otway, North Carolina. She delighted in every place she went! She found joy in many things: homemade ice cream, hummingbirds, pizza on Saturday night, everything that grew in the ground, prosecco at happy hour, the wonder of nature, Mahalia Jackson, eggnog at Christmas, and digging in the dirt. But, most of all, she loved her family with more love than you can imagine. She always had a sparkle in her pretty blue eyes and well always remember her sweet gorgeous smile and how she could never wait to open gifts on Christmas morning. She had a wonderful life and were thankful she is resting peacefully now. She is survived by her children: daughter, Lynn Fisher and husband Scott, son, Jeff and wife Cathy, her grandchildren: Kristen, and Lindsey and husband Chris, and her great grandchild: Addison. She is preceded in death by her parents, Anna and Walter Sandow, her son, Kenny, and her brother, Delmar Sandow and his wife, Elva Sandow. The family will celebrate Leones life privately.
