Janet Fisher (nee Taylor) passed away peacefully on December 30th, 2023, at Belvedere Heights, Parry Sound, surrounded by her loving family.
Jan was a woman of broad interests and talents, whose first priority was always her family. She will be sadly missed by her children John (Diana Elder), Addie Robertson, Ty (Karen Evans Fisher) and Matt (Maria Loukidelis) and close friends Faye Marwood and Joan Macfie. Janet’s beloved husband of 61 years (Dr. Edward Fisher) passed 10 years ago. She was a devoted Gramma Janet to grandchildren Kate, Jenny, Althea, Emma, Adam, Lucas and Jackson, and great grandchildren Brooke and Kenzie.
A graduate of the University of Toronto, Janet taught physical education prior to having children. Once the children were grown she took up a second career founding and running the Parry Sound campus of Georgian College, which she grew into a substantial operation offering a wide range of courses across the district, including a very successful French Immersion program at Rosseau. Janet was also very active in the community. A love of dance led her to join the local Finnish Dance group, the Sunshine Girls, and she and Ed were active participants in Scottish dancing. Generous and compassionate, she will be greatly missed by friends, family and acquaintances alike.
The family extends its gratitude to Faye Marwood who provided great comfort and support, and to the staff of The Friends, the West Parry Sound Health Centre and Belvedere Heights for their excellent care, especially her personal care workers.
Visitation will take place on Friday, January 12th from 4:00 to 6:00 PM at the Logan Funeral Home, 81 James Street, Parry Sound (705-746-5855).
Funeral Service will take place on Saturday, January 13th at 11:00 AM at Trinity Anglican Church, 6 Church Street, Parry Sound.
