Vernon Fischer
July 23, 1935 — December 9, 2018
Vernon Orville Fischer, 83 of Olathe, KS, passed away from pancreatic cancer on December 9, 2018. He was born on July 23, 1935, to Orville and Sadie (Mueller) Fischer in Buffalo Lake, MN. Vern received a Bachelor of Science Degree, in Science and Education from Olivet Nazarene University where he met his lifelong sweetheart, Rosella (Scott) to whom he was married for 61 years. He received a Master of Education degree from Northern Illinois State University. He began his teaching career in Aurora, IL and later moved his family to Minneapolis, MN. Vern was a science teacher, coach and driver's education teacher for 38 years.
Upon his retirement in 1995, Vern and Rosella relocated to Olathe, Kansas, to be near grandchildren. Vern enjoyed competitive sports, motorcycle trips, golfing, woodworking, playing cards and spending time with family and friends.
He was loved by many for his quick wit and humor, loving and warm heart, mind for inventions and compassion toward others. There is not enough space to list all the lives he impacted, and what he meant to those people. He will be missed by all who knew him.
