Jaime E. Fisher

Jaime Enrique Fisher was born to Cleveland Fisher and the late Miriam Belgrave-Fisher on May 14, 1955 in Panama City, Panama. He was the youngest of three and only boy. New York City was home to the family until he relocated to Baltimore City to attend Morgan State University where he resided for 40+ years. He attended I.S. 59, General Douglas MacArthur Military Academy (Mount Freedom, NJ) where he was a ROTC officer and Andrew Jackson H.S. (Qns, NY). At Morgan he got his B.S. in Psychology. Powerfully self sufficient, he supplemented his own tuition with the work-study program at the Social Security Administration. Impressed with his resourcefulness SSA hired him and he remained working and made advancements until he retired in 2010 with 37 years of service. Jaime met Antoinette Greene in Laurelton, Queens when he was 16 years old. He found her to be loud and chatty but they became friends and wed April 14, 1990 at the United Nation’s Chapel in New York City. There were no children from this union but Jaime accepted Zoe (Antoinette),as his own. Jaime was enthusiastic about life, family, art, travel and sports. Jaime was and superior athlete in any sport he put his mind too, but his love was tennis and cycling. Jaime would practice and play tennis for hours. He would tell Antoinette “you always know where you can find me”. He got to the place that he played really well in tournaments and was a ranked player in Maryland and the Mid-Atlantic. Jaime and Antoinette biked through Italy twice, Vermont, The Salisbury and The New York Bike Century. One of Jaime’s favorite things to say before starting a ride was “Picture me rolling”. Music was a great joy of his until the very end and his collection was wide and various from Etta James to Tupac, he loved them all. During his leisure time he would socialize on the tennis court, Sports Car Club or the Museums (especially the African Museum) Which he had an extensive collection of art, books and memorabilia. Jaime lived fully and loved his life. He did it his own way. Sadly, on February 11, 2018, he was called home where there is no pain, suffering, tears or sorrow.
