SGM (ret) Mark Fisher
I am sad to report that SGM (ret.) Mark Fisher (age 56) passed away unexpectedly yesterday at his home. Funeral arrangements are not yet complete in terms of dates/times etc. The Anderson Funeral Home in Ayer is taking care of things and he will probably be buried in the Winchendon Vet cemetery. My best guess is that we are looking at Tuesday or Wednesday.
Mark was technically the first President of Chapter 72 when it split off from
Chapter 4 when the 10th moved to Colorado.
