October 27, 1952 — October 10, 2026

It is with profound sadness and a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Gloria Elaine Fisher, who left this world on October 10, 2026. Born on October 27, 1952, in the lush landscapes of Clarendon, Jamaica, Gloria was a beacon of light and warmth to everyone she encountered. Gloria was the cherished daughter of Barbara Ellis and the late Kenneth Lloyd Fisher. Her life was marked by a deep and abiding faith, a testament to her simple yet unwavering Christian beliefs. Those who knew her were touched by her meek and trusting nature, her generous spirit, and her boundless consideration for others. Her career in secretarial services spanned decades, beginning in the private sector and culminating in a dedicated tenure with the state of New York. Gloria's commitment and professionalism were evident until her well-earned retirement in 2020. Her colleagues remember her as not only a consummate professional but also a friend who brought kindness and empathy to the workplace. Gloria's life was enriched by her love for traveling, her fondness for romance novels, and her enjoyment of movies. These passions were shared with her beloved family and friends, creating memories that will be cherished forever. She leaves behind her spouse, Leslie, and her loving children, Tiffany-Krystle, Nakia, Jamel, and Christopher. Gloria is also survived by her dear mother, Barbara Ellis, and siblings Charmaine, Kirkland (affectionately known as Ricky), Medgar, and Belinda. Her memory will also be cherished by her aunts, cousins, and a wide circle of extended family and friends. She was predeceased by her father, Kenneth Fisher, her son, Christopher Minto, and her brother, Delroy Fisher. The family wishes to especially acknowledge the exemplary care and unwavering love provided by Gloria’s mother, Barbara, during her daughter's illness. Her dedication and compassion were a testament to the profound bond shared between mother and daughter. A celebration of Gloria's life will take place on October 24, 2026, at 10:30 a.m. at the Memorial Park Funeral Home and Cemetery, located at 5750 49th Street N, St. Petersburg, FL 33709. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to a charity of your choice, in honor of Gloria’s generous spirit.
