On January 23, 2018 Charlie Floyd Fisher Jr., 68 of Kill Devil Hills, NC died in Norfolk Sentara Hospital after suffering a massive stroke.
He leaves behind his son, Charlie “Chuck” Fisher, III and his wife, Mandy of Kill Devil Hills; his daughter, Heather Starns also of Kill Devil Hills; four grandchildren, Jeremy Harwood, Whitley Craft, Addyson Fisher, and Benjamin Fisher; and two great-grandchildren, Cylas Harwood and Althea Harwood.
Our dad was a simple man. He liked to fish, metal detect, and spend time with his family and his loyal canine companion, Elvis.
Our comfort, we are finding in all of this, is he went to Heaven where he was reunited with his wife (our mom) the late Jennifer Fisher. With our faith and hope in Jesus Christ, we too will be reunited with both of our parents on day in Heaven.
Charlie’s celebration of life service will be held February 24, 2018 at 11 am at the church he attended — Still Waters Baptist Church at 100 E. Driftwood St. Nags Head, NC. Pastor Tony Facenda will officiate.
