Laurence (Larry) M. Fisher
March 20, 1941 - September 10, 2021
Larry Fisher was born on March 20, 1941 in New York City, New York and was raised on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. He was the son of Harry Fisher and Martha Fisher (nee Goldstein). Larry graduated from the scholastically recognized Bronx Science High School and later graduated from City College in New York City. He established an innovative and successful telecommunications business and then held various sales positions at respected technology companies. Later in life Larry became a realtor in Stamford, Connecticut.
Larry was an adventurous soul. He was a skier, motorcyclist, and avid sailor. He was an early adopter of technology up until the end of his life. He could navigate and fix just about any gadget or device. He enjoyed a wide range of music, particularly opera and the classical genre. He was very fond of American-style Chinese food and spent countless hours eating with friends and family in New York City’s Chinatown and local Stamford restaurants. He will be especially remembered by all that knew him for his clever humor and wit, which he shared generously.
He is survived by his eldest son Keith Fisher, daughter-in-law Jennifer, grandson, Luke, granddaughter, Lila, of Boca Raton, Florida; and son Kevin Fisher, daughter-inlaw Anuja, granddaughter, Raina, of San Francisco,
California. He was predeceased by his sister, Carol Robinson.
