Obituary: John Robert Fischer has passed away on 4 at home surrounded by his family after a long and difficult illness. His courage and determination to live his life as long and as full as he could with his beloved family in the face of an almost lifelong fight with death is what very few have the strength or will to do. Under almost insurmountable odds, John proved doctors wrong over and over again for almost 40 years to live a life where he could bring love to those he loved most; his wife Sylvia, and children Kyle and Tessa. gave him the will to continue to live, provide a beautiful home for them, and support them in all their endeavors even though he was always under constant pain and failing health. Such courage and fortitude is rarely found.

John grew up in San Rafael and Santa Barbara, graduated from Bishop Diego High School and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo with a degree in Engineering. He then worked a few decades as an engineer in Silicon Valley. Always an amazing Fix-It person John opened up his own contracting business, Handyman Connection. Ever an environmentalist, lover of creation and farmer at heart, Johns last career was one of teaching sustainable food growing practices.

More than anything John was a scientist. From the time he was a boy he loved studying the natural world. As he grew into adulthood these loves turned him into a self-educated geologist. Extended family vacations always included wonderful exploration trips finding treasures in the ground; field trips into beautiful deserts, up wild canyons, down rocky beaches, and over beautiful mountains. Those journeys into the amazing corners of the world were always the prize. His love of the ocean led him to learn scuba diving, and that was how he met a beautiful lady at a diving shop. He really did use the pick up line Ill be your dive buddy. Their first date was at the beach scuba diving the very next day. Sylvia soon became his wife and partner in lifes adventures. He used his scientific talents by volunteering for years at the Bonfante Botanical Gardens, one year being recognized for putting in the most volunteer hours. He instilled in his family love and respect for all living things. He loved sharing his passion with young and old alike.

An excellent athlete, John played baseball and volleyball all his life, continuing even when his health hardly let him stand. He coached his daughter in volleyball and she and her team mates from Mount Madonna became state champions. He enjoyed following the Giants and Warriors until the very end.

Hiking and camping were also his loves as they enabled him to get out into unspoiled nature. Yosemite was a favorite destination for the family.

Johns favorite Jackson Browne song was If I could be anywhere, which was inspired while Browne was sailing aboard Mission Blue Voyage while brainstorming ways to save the ocean. John spent several days on Jekyll Island studying the plight of the Logger Head Sea Turtles while at their rescue facility. He saw firsthand the danger of plastics in the ocean and the harm it can cause. This confirmed his drive to do everything he could to not leave any footprints while here.

Nothing could keep him down. Over the years his illness disabled him more and more, but he flatly refused to stop and just kept going, no matter how slow, or how pain filled, or how tired he was. He was amazing and we will miss him like hell.


John is preceded in death by his father Richard Fischer and Mother Mary (Hannon) Fischer. He is survived by his wife Sylvia, son Kyle, daughter Tessa, sister Andrea Fischer-Ortiz, niece Rhianna Henderson and nephews Graham and Joseph Fischer-Ortiz. He is a beloved son-in-law to Sylvias parents Mary and Tony Hamel, and a brother to Sylvias sisters Mary Jean (Danny) and Lisa (Brad) and brother Tony (Loni) and their families. John was God Father to Danny and Mary Jeans children, Yala and Bennie, and Andreas children Rhianna, Graham and Joseph. We find peace in the knowledge that he is no longer sick or in pain and is with his Father in heaven. He is missed with my every breath.

Janice Roberta Fischer, born June 9, 1947 entered eternal life March 10, 2011 in Studio City, California. Janice was 63. Tags: #Angeles #Ironsids #Hollywood #Village #Michael #Kirschners #Concert #Kirschner #Robin #Lost #Golden #Tough #Married #Tribe
Obituary: Janice was born on 9, 1947 and passed away on , 10, 2011. Janice was a resident of Studio City, California. Janice was a truly unique and beautiful girl and woman. She became enthusiastically involved with theater, acting and comedy in high school; and thereafter studied in the drama department of Los Angeles Valley where she appeared in major productions. She later appeared in three episodes of the long running network television series Ironsids between 1968 and 1972. Of course these television shows were not great drama, but one can see in her performance that she was very focused even when not the center of the cameras attention. She was in character all the time, and acting and reacting in character. She did not possess what, at the time, was considered Hollywood type beauty, but she had her own beauty. She had a sweet personality and possessed a rare true wit. Her parents died when she was fairly young and had no siblings. With her petite physical characteristics it was certainly difficult to find parts as an actress. She was this small brilliant girl trying to make it in a business where opportunities for women, in general, were not as they are today. Due to her physical type (and casting was very rigid in those days) she found herself working in an answering service. She was very industrious and independent. She drifted into improvisational comedy and was a pivotal member of a group called the Village Idiots. The original group included the now famous Michael Keaton. became regulars on Don Kirschners Rock Concert in the 70s. According to the Don Kirschner website they appeared in fifty episodes. also performed regularly in comedy clubs in Los Angeles, sharing the stage with the best comics of the day including Robin Williams. When that show was cancelled she transitioned into writing. She was best known for the Lost Boys. She was very unhappy about the rewriting of her original script of Lost Boys and considered taking her name off the credits. But that is Hollywood. She also wrote for the Golden Girls, Tough Cookies and I Married Dora television series, as well as the direct-to-video film Lost Boys: The Tribe. She also was very active in the local dinner theater circuit, playing character parts in her later years. Janice had an intellect, wit, talent and determination that belied her small physical size. She was a unique beauty with a rare delicacy and sweet generous personality. She was very courageous working to make it in show business during the era she was born into. Yet she did perform on network television, on the stage and write for network television and motion pictures. She was also loved and respected, and is deeply missed.
