Verda was the daughter of the late John Wiley and Sarah Belle Green Fisher. She was a retired worker from A.O. Smith and a faithful member of the North Hills Dr Church of God of Prophecy. She loved her Lord and worked for Him all her life. She worked hard in all that she endeavored to do.

Hale, Johnnie (Marvin) Jackson, and brother-in-law Carl M. Simmons.
Verda leaves us all with so many wonderful memories to cherish until we meet again. She touched the lives of many and was incredibly loved as a mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend. She will be deeply missed by all.
A special thanks to care givers Jessica Angel and Judy Deweese who cared for her with deep devotion. Thank you to Amedisys Hospice for their care and support during this time.
