He loved and cherished his mom, Vera and loved and respected his stepdad, Butch. He was especially close to his aunt Audrey Smith and had lots of memories of “Sleepy Hollow”. He was very close to his brother, Richard.
Wayne worked in Raymondville at the sawmill and at Rawlings in Licking, where there was never a dull moment.
Wayne had a love for riding motorcycles and the feeling of pure freedom, also anything, Harley Davidson. For over 29 years he actively served as a sponsor and mentor in AA in Fulton, leading many to sobriety. He spoke in meetings and conventions to encourage and save the lives of many who struggled with addictions. He celebrated 29 years sobriety and lived and breathed the AA program. He will always be known for his statements, “If you keep doing what you’re doing you’ll keep getting what you’re getting” and “I am still above ground and breathing on my own.”
The latter part of his life he chose to come back to Licking to be close to his family. He was extremely proud of his children and grandchildren. He enjoyed family time, visiting outside and going on walks. He enjoyed visits from friends, talking and reminiscing on past years. He loved socializing and making people laugh and smile.
We will miss him very much and he will forever be in our hearts. There was only one Wayne Fisher.
