April 9, 1949 – November 25, 2021
It is with profound sadness we announce the passing of Ralph Fisher. Ralph died peacefully with his wife Diane at his side. A loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend. He leaves behind his wife Diane Kinney, son Michael (Erin), daughter Kelly (Clint), grandchildren Kayleen and Connor Puskarich and Juniper and Jasper Fisher. Predeceased by his parents John and Anne Fisher and his brother Jon, he is survived by his sister Anne. Also missing Ralph will be his sisters and brothers-in-law, nieces and nephews, as well as his many friends.
Ralph’s love for his family was boundless. His greatest pride was watching his kids succeed and seeing his grandchildren grow. He loved live music and some of his best times were going to shows and travelling with Diane. He was kind, funny and would help anyone at any time. He spent years coaching minor hockey in Mississauga. He was a diehard Toronto Maple Leaf fan (really any Toronto sports team).
A funeral Mass will be held on December 4, 2021 at 11:00 at St. George Catholic Church, 56 Ridgeway Rd., Crystal Beach. Due to Covid restrictions, it will be necessary to register in advance if you plan to attend.

Pops, as you were lovingly known by us co-workers, we’re an absolute gem to work with. Your pride of job, gentile demeanour and love for family was a true testimony to your character and you will forever hold a special place in my heart. Thank you for being a part of my life and know you will be forever missed
Our deepest sympathies to you and the family.
Dear Diane, Michael and Kelly.
Ralph was an incredible husband, father and grandfather. He was also a great brother-in-law. My early memories of Ralph were that he was like my big brother to me. Driving me places, letting me tag along when he was coaching boys hockey because he knew I had a crush on a few of them. I remember camping weekends at Sauble Beach and that he let me drink his beer. He was quiet but generous and fun. He was definitely one of a kind. Ralph will be greatly missed.
Love Lorraine, Jim and family
Our sincerest condolences to you and your family at this most difficult time. Our hearts and prayers are with you, Shelly Gould and Bob Wilson
Dear Diane, Michael and Kelly,
Ralph was an excellent husband, father and grandfather, but to me he was also a great brother-in–law.
My early memories of Ralph were that of a big brother. He drove me places and let me tag along when he was coaching boys hockey because he knew I had a crush on a few of them. I have happy memories of camping weekends at Sauble Beach and he always let me drink his beer. He was fun and gentle and a quiet observer. He was definitely one of a kind. Ralph will truly be missed.
Love Lorraine, Jim and family xo

Ralph, you will be truly missed. Al will definitely miss your texts during The Leafs games. Your “board meetings” will be continued by the “introverts” in your memory. We only met a few short years ago but your smile has left a place in our hearts ♥️. Diane and family we are truly sorry for your loss.
My deepest condolences Diane to you and your family. I remember the many stories you would share about your husband. The love between you was so obvious to all of us. Sending you my care and heartfelt wishes as know how difficult this time must be for you and your children and grandchildren. I hope your faith and inner strength will help you through this time. I am here anytime you need a chat or a shoulder. Mary Crescenzi
