Ona Fisher, daughter of the late John F. and Martha (Curtner) Scaggs, was born August 16, 1934 in Texas County, Missouri and passed away, surrounded by her family, September 23, 2010 at her home in Mtn. Grove, Missouri following a long and courageous battle with cancer. She was 76 years, 5 months and 7 days of age.
Ona grew up in the Bendavis area and attended Murr School. She was united in marriage to Art Fisher on February 6, 1970. Two daughters were born to this union. Art and Ona worked for the Brown Shoe Company for several years and had lived in several places throughout the years but had made their home in Mtn. Grove for the past eight years, following their retirement. Art passed away December 2, 2009.
Ona enjoyed fishing and camping but mostly enjoyed spending time with her kids and grandkids. Ona attended the Cabool Assembly of God Church for the past several years as long as her health permitted. Although not being able to attend, Ona never lost her faith in the Lord. She witnessed to those she encountered such as nurses and hospice workers about the fact that it was up to her Lord when it was her time to go and not the physician’s diagnosis.
Ona was a very gentle, yet strong woman and fought the good fight until the end. She was a loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and sister. She will be truly missed by all who knew and loved her.
Ona is survived by her two daughters: Rhonda Ice and husband John and Libby Hutsell and Randy Woods; one sister: Sue Anderson and husband James; Four grandchildren: Amber Kelly and husband Jason, Michael Hutsell and Kristen Vogel, Jeffrey Ice and wife Debbie, and Destiney Hutsell; ten great-grandchildren: Austin Smart, Rylie Kelly, Ashtyn Kelly, Cara Beggs, Kaleb Ice, Landon Wilson, Bailee Beggs, Graysen Kelly, Gage Beggs, and Garrett Hutsell; three nieces; one nephew; and a host of other relatives and friends.
