Derek Fisher Death, Obituary: In Loving Memory of Derek Fisher and His Beloved Pup, Marley

We are deeply saddened by the passing of our own Derek Fisher and his cherished companion, Marley. Derek was a valued and respected member of the Goodrich Auto Works family for 18 years, and his loss leaves a profound emptiness in our hearts and within our workplace.

Throughout his years with us, Derek exemplified dedication, professionalism, and integrity. He approached his work with pride and consistency, always willing to lend a hand, share his knowledge, or step in wherever he was needed. His strong work ethic was matched by his genuine kindness—qualities that earned him the respect and admiration of colleagues, customers, and friends alike. Derek didn’t just do his job well; he made the people around him better by his presence.

Derek touched countless lives at Goodrich Auto Works. He was more than a coworker—he was a trusted teammate, a mentor to many, and a true friend. His steady demeanor, thoughtful words, and quiet sense of humor brought comfort and camaraderie to our days. The impact of his contributions is woven into the fabric of our workplace, and his legacy will continue to guide us in meaningful ways.

By Derek’s side through it all was Marley, his beloved pup and constant companion. Their bond was a beautiful reminder of loyalty, love, and the simple joys that make life richer. It feels fitting—and deeply moving—that they are remembered together, as they shared so much of life side by side.

On behalf of the entire Goodrich Auto Works family, we extend our heartfelt condolences to Derek’s family and friends. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this incredibly difficult time. While words cannot ease the pain of such a loss, please know that Derek was deeply respected, sincerely appreciated, and will never be forgotten. His memory will live on in the stories we share, the lessons he taught us, and the lasting impression he left on all who had the honor of knowing him.
