Betty Lou Brant Fisher

Betty Lou Brant Fisher, 76, of Bokeelia died peacefully in the comfort of her home surrounded by her loving family July 10, 2009. She was born April 17, 1933 in Highland, Indiana to William Joseph and Helen Margaret (nee Skinner) Brant. She graduated from Purdue University June 1955 and became a teacher at the Durgen Grade School in Lafayette, Indiana. Betty was a member of the Kappa Alpha Theta Fraternity, founded in 1870, which holds the honor of becoming the first Greek letter fraternity known among women. After many years of vacationing in the SW Florida area she moved with her family in 2005 to Bokeelia, Florida from Chester County, Pennsylvania.

Betty was a member of the Eastern Star, Royal Center, Indiana.

She was employed by General Electric in Cincinnati, Ohio as an Engineering Assistant. She enjoyed traveling, cooking, reading, and the daily crossword puzzle.

She is survived by Charles A. Fisher, Jr., her loving husband of 54 years,

her devoted son, Charles A. Fisher III (Jill), one brother William Joseph Brant, Jr. (Eddy) and several nieces and nephews.

She was a wonderful human being and a devoted wife, mother and sister. She was a kind and caring person and will be sadly missed by all who knew her. A celebration of Betty’s life will be held at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, memorial gifts may be sent to the donor’s favorite charity in memory of Betty.
