Howard K. "Buck" Fisher, 98, of New Providence, entered into rest on Sunday October 22, 2023 at the Quarryville Presbyterian Retirement Community. Born in Holtwood, he was the son of
QUARRYVILLE, Pa. Bob Adams has something that most people do not a memory from 1923.
“I was just learning to walk, and I started to follow my father down to the basement he went down to fix the furnace,” Adams says. “I started after him, and I went tumbling down to the landing and hit my head on the cat’s dish.”
When Adams hit his head on that cat dish, he was 2 years old.
On Feb. 15, 98 years later, Adams celebrated his 100th birthday, and he celebrated in style, with a personal car parade outside of his apartment in Quarryville Presbyterian Retirement Community. Flanked by daughters Gail Miller and Regina “Regi” Chandler – and in spirit by his third daughter, Terri Jones, who died in November – Adams received a line of cars and firetrucks bearing his name on the side. Some 75 people from throughout his life came to visit while Adams, in a chair, sat outside and received them one by one.
