Fisher -
2. Spouse's name and where he/she was born or

right now. My husband passed away over 2yrs. ago.
3. How/where did you meet your spouse - I met
Roger online one night and we visited via yahoo

so I agreed to meet him. When he smiled that winning
smile he has he had me from the start…lol.
4. Your occupation before retirement I have
worked several different jobs but the last 10 yrs or so
have been in "retail". The past 5 were at Scheels All
Sports in Lincoln Ne. It was a fun job and one thing
neat about it well all got to know Larry the Cable guy
as he's from Pawnee City Ne. originally and he shopped
in Scheels
when we was back in town and also he attends many of the
Husker football games.
5. Guess you could say it was the "college of domestic
engineering"
6. Your spouse's occupation before retirement
Roger worked for Nebr. Public Power Dist. for many many
yrs.
7. Favorite place (city/state) where you have
lived and why - I love Lincoln Ne. just a great town
to live in. But now I'm living in the country again
about 40 miles east of Lincoln and I love being back out
in the country and seeing the wild life around here.
There are many many deer and lots of turkeys and of
course the racoons and there's a groundhog living in the
brush as well.
8. How many children, if any -I have a daughter
Shelly and her husband Dale and they live in Lincoln, my
son Mike and his wife Sara live in Sutherland, Ne.
9. Grandchildren? How many - 5 all grandsons.
Shelly has 3 boys, Rob is the oldest and is 23 and in
the Army reserves. He spent a yr. at Camp Anacond in
Ballad AFB. His unit came home last Dec. 5th and we are
so thankful he came home safely. They did lose 2 men
from their unit and he was there when the first soldier
was killed by an IED.
Rob
had some burns on his hands and under his watch as they
tried to get the soldier out of the hummer. Right now
he's living in Kimball,
Ne. and is working at the oil fields and is also going
to police training to be the Dep. Sheriff.
Shellys
17 yr old,
Nathan will be Jr. and he shattered his left ankle this
summer skate boarding and really did a number on it.
After 10 days they were able to operate on his leg and
he also had 2 fractures on one of the leg bones so he
has a place in his leg with 8 screws which will stay
there and 2 screws in the ankle and they will come out
later. All in all he had 56 staples in his leg. NOT a
pretty site. Brennan the 15 yr. old will be a freshman
and is quite the romeo,enough said…lol.
Mike
and Sara have 2 boys. Jared graduated in May and will
attend UNLK University of NEb. at Kearney this fall.
He's been a state wrestler all 4 yrs. of high school and
finished 3rd this yrs. Jordan just turned 17 and will be
a jr. and also wrestles.
10. Special hobbies - I've enjoyed our riding
on the Harley so far this summer and we leave Tues. for
Sturgis and then hopefully down to Colo. to ride the
Mts. for a couple of days.
11. Any other details you care to share - Guess
that's it. I get a little carried away when I talk about
my grandkids but the are so very special to me.
