Ronald Elroy Fisher

In Loving Memory of Ronald Elroy Fisher
May 25, 1958 - May 13, 2025

Ron was born in Carberry to Elroy and Leona Fisher and raised on the family farm south of Wellwood. He attended Wellwood School and later attended Carberry Collegiate Institute until 1976. Shortly after, he moved to Red Deer for a year of work before returning home to join his dad and brother in operating the family hog and grain farm, a commitment he maintained until 2006.

On October 18, 1980, Ron married the love of his life, Trina Becker. Together, they built a life filled with love and laughter. They raised three children—Tyson, Stefanie, and Timothy—and Ron was a proud and supportive father. He could often be found in hockey rinks, curling clubs, or poolside, cheering on his kids and making fast friends with other parents along the way.

In 2008, Ron lost his vision in a car accident, and he and Trina made the decision to move from the family yard site near Wellwood to Neepawa shortly after in 2010, where they continued to enjoy small-town life and community connection.

Ron had a fondness for sports and community involvement. He spent many seasons playing rec baseball with the Wellwood Streakers and curling with the Carberry Men’s Curling Club. He also gave generously of his time, serving on the Carberry Recreation Board, the Manitoba Pork Council, and the Yellowhead Roadrunners executive. A true car enthusiast, Ron especially loved showing his 1971 Pontiac LeMans and later his 1980 El Camino at car shows across the region.

Ron will be remembered for his boisterous personality, easy conversation, unwavering support for those he loved, and his meaningful contributions to his community.

The family extends heartfelt gratitude to the healthcare professionals who supported Ron throughout the years, with special thanks to Dr. Milligan for his care and compassion.

Ron is survived by his loving wife and best friend of 44 years, Trina; his children, Tyson (Kristen), Stefanie, and Timothy; and his cherished grandchildren, Nolan, Claire, Carter, and Owen. He is also survived by his parents, Elroy and Leona; sister Donna and brother Larry (Lorraine); brothers-in-law Tom (Karen), Craig, and Wayne (Jody); and many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, and cousins. Ron was preceded in death by his in-laws, Art and Velma Becker.
