Felton – Warren James Fischer, Sr., 86, went to be with his Lord and Savior on Monday, October 12, 2020 in Glenwood, Washington with family at his side. He was the husband of the love of his life, his ‘sweet Bonnie’ Jean (Deitz) Fischer. They were married on November 28, 1964 at EUB in Red Lion, now known at St. Paul’s Methodist Church. Born on June 3, 1934 in Brooklyn, New York, he was a son of the late Abbey and Josephine Fischer. He proudly served in the US Navy on the USS Missouri from 1950-1953.

He also worked at Buck Foundry, Bonton Foods and was known as the “spaghetti bender” for his Italian heritage. He was a Union Representative and a supervisor. Warren was an active member of Mt. Zion Baptist Church. His wishes were to have memorial contributions sent to the church’s Bible Assembly, 48 Muddy Creek Forks Road, Brogue, PA 17309. His favorite scripture verse was Romans 10:9.
