LEWISBURG — Beverly K. Fisher, 88, a resident of RiverWoods and formerly of 235 S. 12th St., Lewisburg, went to be with the Lord on Saturday, Nov. 10, 2012.
She was born Feb. 7, 1924, in Milton, the daughter of the late Stanford Kunkle and Florence Perry.

Beverly is survived by a son, Craig Fisher, of Lewiston, Idaho, daughter, Cherry Fisher-Bryan and her husband, Mac Bryan, of Warriors, Mark, and son, Keith and his wife, Susan, of Annapolis Md.; and two grandchildren, William and Jillian Fisher, of Annapolis.
She was preceded in death by her brother, Stanford Kunkle Jr.
