Sherry Fisher

Sherry Fisher, 71, of Ellis, KS passed away on Sunday, November 9, 2025, at HaysMed.

Sherry was born December 11, 1953 in Hays, KS to Robert and Alma Armbrister and grew up in Ellis. She graduated from Ellis High School in 1971 and married Norbert Fisher, in 1973 at Christ Lutheran Church in Ellis.

Sherry spent over 30 years working as a case worker at the Hays SRS office, where she was known for her dedication to helping others. She was a lifelong member of Christ Lutheran Church, singing in the choir and serving on the church council over the years. Sherry also stayed active with the Ellis High School Alumni Association.

In her free time, Sherry loved to crochet, sew, and cross-stitch. She was a big fan of puzzles, word searches, and card games, and she was always baking something sweet for family and friends. Her greatest joy was spending time with her grandchildren—spoiling them every chance she got.

Sherry is survived by her husband, Norbert, of the home; her two daughters, Renee Fisher of Scottsdale, AZ and Melissa Fisher and her children Lainey, Oliver and Evie of Denver, CO; her brother, Rick Armbrister of Salina, KS; and her sisters, Dixie Armbrister and Michelle Armbrister of Newton, KS. She was preceded in death by her parents and her sister, Melanie Armbrister.

A celebration of Sherry’s life will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, November 15, 2025, at Keithley Funeral Chapel, 400 E. 17th St., Ellis, KS. Burial will follow at Mt. Hope Cemetery in Ellis.

Memorials are suggested to Christ Lutheran Church.
