Dave was born on October 22, 1940 in Cleveland, Ohio to Henry and Caroline Fischer. He married his sweetheart, Patricia Sefcovic on June 10, 1961 and together had two sons, David, Jr., and Charles. Over his life he was an amazing businessman, working as Purchasing Director for the Frito Lay Corporation, head of the National Association of Minority Contractors and later the Parker County Appraisal Board. He always enjoyed playing chess, bowling and watching baseball. Most importantly, he was a faultlessly loyal husband, eternally supportive father and a very proud grandfather and great-grandfather. His laughter and light have touched so many lives and will continue to shine, unparalleled in memory, for many years to come.

Dave is survived by his wife Patricia of 59 years; his sons, David Henry Fischer, Jr., and Charles Alfred Fischer, II; his grandchildren, Henry, Megan Ann and Andrew Charles; and by one great-grandson, John.

In addition to his loving parents, Dave was preceded in death by his brother, Charles Alfred Fischer.
