Maureen Fischer (Schantz)
August 11, 1949 — December 14, 2021
Maureen F. Fischer, age 72 of Warsaw, passed away quietly on Tuesday, December 14, 2021 in Fort Wayne at Parkview Regional Hospital.
She was born in Washington Heights, Manhattan, New York on August 11, 1949, the daughter of the late John and Beatrice (Weigand) Schantz. She spent her formative years in New Jersey, graduating from New Milford High School in 1967.
For more than 25 years, Maureen called the Warsaw area home. She worked for Cardinal Services as a supervisor in a residential care home. She was known for her hard work ethic and her giving nature.
