Mrs. Fischer was born May 27, 1921, in Ranger, Texas.
She graduated from Breckenridge High School in Breckenridge, Texas, in 1939. She attended business college in Dallas and worked for Jake Sandifer Oil Company as a secretary.
She met and married the love of her life — Elmer Fischer — at Camp Barkley Army Chapel on Jan. 15, 1944, in Abilene, Texas.

Her care and concern for others was her special gift in this world.
Betty loved to travel with her family. Probably, her happiest time was on picnics with family members. She had a Texas-sized heart of compassion and love for all. Betty lived life to the fullest. Many of us are blessed to have shared this life with her. We will never forget her. We will rejoice at the day we can see her again.
