Bio
James Robert Fisher, 82, a resident of Twin Falls, died Wednesday, Aug. 25, 2010, in his home. Jim was born Nov. 24, 1927, in Greeley, Neb., to Janis J. and Deborah Fisher. As a young boy, he moved with his family to Sandpoint and then down to southern Idaho. At the age of 14, he moved to Ruby Valley, Nev., where he worked as a ranch hand until he joined the U.S. Navy in January of 1946. When honorably discharged, he moved to Tulley Lake, Calif., and became a Fish and Game conservation officer, where he met his wife of 61 years and love of his life, Nina J. Smith. They eventually moved to the Magic Valley in Idaho, where together they raised their four children. Jim began work farming the local area where he often helped fight local fires. Eventually, he found his calling as a sheet metal worker until retirement. Some of Jim's favorite pastimes included fishing, hunting and camping with his family or friends. After retirement, he and his wife worked as camp hosts in the beautiful and rugged areas of Idaho that they loved so much. Jim was known to be a stubborn but fair man. He devoted his life to his family and friends and was always there if they ever needed him. Jim is preceded in death by both his parents; two brothers, Jack and Melvin Fisher; and a son, Wesley "Vic" Fisher. Jim is survived by his wife, Nina of Twin Falls; his children, Carrie Watson of Indianapolis, Ind., Robert (Debbie) Fisher of Twin Falls and Richard Fisher of Hailey; six grandchildren, Sharea (Rob) Brehm of Indiana, Chana Watson of Indiana, Jason Fisher of Twin Falls, Westin (Sadie) Fisher of Twin Falls, Heather (Carl) Seaman of Mountain Home and Nicole Fisher of Hailey; and four great-grandchildren.
