Thomas Gregory "Gregg" Fisher, 68, died Wednesday, July 15, 2015 in Mechanicsville, MD at the home he shared with the love of his life Patricia Jean Fisher. Gregg and Patty had recently celebrated thirty years of marriage.

Gregg was born in the Bronx, NY on May 29, 1947 to the late John A. Fisher and Margaret F. Fisher (née Tarbell). He was also predeceased by his brother Gordon Lewis and his sister Frances Barnes.

Gregg was a proud member of the Saint Regis Mohawk tribe of Akwesasne, NY, a part of the Iroquois Nation. He served in the United States Navy and received the National Defense Service Medal and the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal (Dominican Republic). Gregg retired after working for nearly 25 years as a welder for the Brotherhood of Boilermakers out of Union Local #193 in Baltimore, MD. He also ran his own small business (Iroquois Moon) selling Native American beaded crafts and sweet grass baskets.

Gregg was a loving father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, known to all of his grandchildren as "Duda". He took great joy in the holidays when family members gathered in his home, especially Christmas. He always had a smile and a great sense of humor. He was also very active in his community, having served two terms as the President of the Mechanicsville Optimist Club and one term as Lieutenant Governor of the Maryland-South Delaware District. Gregg enjoyed volunteering with his family; he especially enjoyed the Shop with a Cop Event they participated in together each year.

Gregg is survived by his wife Patricia Jean Fisher, his children, DeDe Pullen (Jeff) of Mechanicsville, MD, Margo Fisher Antonio (Eddie) of Ft. Rucker, AL, Becky Marek (Dave) of Charlotte Hall, MD, Dickie Hammett III of California, MD, and Valerie Fisher of Phoenix, AZ. He is also survived by his ten grandchildren, Amanda, Megan, Danielle, Raegan, Chas, Brianna, Alexis, Bailee, Breanna, Casey, and three great grandchildren, Carter, Emma, and Amelia.
