Margaret Ann Fisk

Margaret “Ann” Fisk went to be with the Lord on May 7, 2021. Ann was born to Charles and Emma Schwartz as the oldest sibling of Wayne and Barbara in Fulton, Ohio. She leaves behind a loving husband, a close sister, a forever grateful son and daughter-in-law, and two proud grandchildren. In high school, she was a student leader and active in student government and band. After graduating from high school, she attended the University of Cincinnati’s Nursing school. As an Honorary Cadet Colonel for the Army and Air Force, she enjoyed leading special events and working alongside her fellow students. At the University of Cincinnati hospital, she was known to captivate patients with games and activities that provided a welcome source of engagement and enjoyment. In July, 1961, Ann was a gifted and beautiful catch for Ron. She was set to mark 60 years as a wedded soulmate this year. Through 60 years of business ups and downs as well as family challenges and accomplishments, she was a faithful anchor and partner for Ron. After getting married, she and Ron moved to Denver. Ann continued nursing as a visiting nurse. She worked with underprivileged families and would go after work to help her patients and their families with grocery shopping or other basic needs. As a mother, she guided Tami and Tim, to excel in school and life and provided them broad experiences that gave them an expansive view of the impact they could have on the world. As a parent, she enjoyed leading groups like a junior high science club that used a full year of recycling to pay for a tour of 100+ kids to go on a weeklong hike into the Grand Canyon. She also spent years researching, experimenting, and shopping for her kids special diets/allergies. This knowledge and experience led to her starting a business that worked with patients to overcome health and dietary challenges, a business she ran for over 15 years. During all of this, she led the toddler care at Mission Hills Church for 15+ years and she was so happy when her former toddlers started coming back as teenage helpers. She also delighted in sharing in her adult children’s travels as they lived in China, Japan, Africa, Singapore and Thailand, all of which shaped her perspective and interests. Along with her family, engaging people of all ages and backgrounds was another of her passions. These relationships became family to her and whose successes she celebrated including Isabell pursuing college, the happiness and achievements of Rachel and Steven, the success of a new mother of triplets, and many others she befriended and stood alongside over the years. Also, her group of special friends in Denver were a wonderful source of love, entertainment, support, and unwavering friendship that she both benefitted from and loved. After nearly 60 years in her beloved “blue sky” Colorado, she moved with Ron to Michigan in 2018 to be closer to Tim and his wife, Kristin, and her grandkids Sam and Annabel who were a tremendous source of love and joy for Ann. Ann also continued developing a wide variety of friends at Fox Run. She applied her daily meditations in “Jesus Calling” to give her wisdom to continue to grow her new set of friends that meant so much to her. Ann now is with her Savior, Jesus, and with her daughter Tami in heaven and will be there to greet us with a smile and a hug.
