With his quiet voice, his easy going ways, his ability to make you feel
like part of the family, his love and devotion to his wife Diane and his
children/grandchildren/great-grandchildren, Earl Fischer will be
missed by so many people. The Ackley’s - Eddie/Laura/Lavon/Rita/Lyn
are right at the top of the list. We have so many good memories of Earl
along with Diane and the children beginning in 1970 when they become
our neighbor in Pea Ridge, AR. Memories that will last forever and
can never be taken away. Our love to Diane, Teresa, Richard, Sharon,
J.R. and Keith.
Eddie, Laura, Lavon, Rita and Lyn Ackley
It has been a long time since I saw Earl, but he was always a pleasure
to be around. I remember going to the house by the fairgrounds and
Earl ate his weight in the overly dry dressing that no one else would
touch. I also know that Jennifer and Amanda thought the world of him.
Lisa Bogan Reese
My condolences to Diane and the children ... and to ALL the family &
friends of Earl for their loss. I had the pleasure of working with Earl
in the R&D Dept of Daisy on many projects, as well as projects
involving some of his other businesses. When Earl was in the Seattle
area (after I moved here in 1980) he would visit, and we would “catch
up” on family news and Daisy Friends. Earl will be missed by many!

We are very sorry to hear of the passing of such a wonderful man. His
gentle quietness will be greatly missed. Even though he was a quiet
man, he had a way of showing his care and concern. He always made us
feel welcome and wanted each time we visited, and I know Matt,
Tamara, and Melissa will miss their grandpa very much, and I will
also. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.
Sharon Fischer
Earl will be missed on Monday's in the Foster Golf Group.
David & Gerry Kowalski

Tammy Hummel
I’m so sorry Earl was my best friend great man he will be missed.
Love, bud
Our prayers and support go out to Diane and family. Earl was such a
good and supportive man and will be dearly missed.
We played many rounds of golf in the old Daisy League on Wednesdays
back in the day and many more rounds after.
God Bless
