William J. "Bill" Fisher, 91, of Hot Springs, SD passed away September 3, 2007 at the Fall River Hospital in Hot Springs.

Bill was born November 20, 1915, in Van Tassell, WY to Antone and Lousia (Armtrust) Fisher. He lived in Van Tassell until he was 24. In 1939 Bill married Mary Christian in Gearing, NE. He moved from Harrison, NE to Hot Springs in 1942 where he ran the Pontiac Dealership and parts store. Bill sold his dealership building to the Hot Springs Senior Citizens Center and was very active in the Center. Bill is probably most known as the local locksmith. Since he was a locksmith for 40 years in the Hot Springs area, he probably keyed or unlocked every lock in town at least once.

Bill will be very much missed by his several nieces and nephews as well as all of his friends. He was preceded in death by his parents; his wives, Mary and Lucille (Meirs); five sisters and two brothers.

Memorial services will be held 2:00 p.m., Friday, September 7, 2007 at McColley's Chapel of the Hills in Hot Springs with Pastor Edwin Coats and Fr. Claude Vershure officiating.

A memorial has been established to benefit the Hot Springs Senior Citizens Center in Hot Springs.
