His name was Philip. He never felt like he belonged. He was pleasant enough but he looked a bit different and sometimes seemed unusual to his eight-year-old classmates. In his Sunday school class several weeks before Easter, Phillip’s teacher introduced a special project. He gave every member a plastic "egg"--the kind pantyhose used to come in. He explained that each child was to go outside, find a symbol for new life and put it into the egg. Enthusiastically, the class responded. Back in the classroom the eggs were opened one at a time with each child explaining the meaning of his symbol. In the first egg was a pretty flower; in the next a beautiful butterfly, while green grass was in a third. The children "oohed" and "aahed". In another was a rock, which prompted loud laughter. Finally the last egg was opened - there was nothing. "That’s stupid," said one child. Another grumbled, ”Someone didn’t do it right! The teacher felt a tug on his shirt. It was Phillip, who said, ’That’s mine, and I did do right! It’s empty, ’cause the tomb was empty."
* There was an unusual, thoughtful silence. And strangely, from that time on, Phillip was accepted as part of the group. Phillip continued to struggle with many physical problems. That summer he picked up an infection which most children would easily have shaken off. But Philip’s weak body couldn’t and a few weeks later, he died. At his funeral nine eight year-olds with their teacher brought their symbol of remembrance and placed it near his coffin. Their unusual gift of love to Phillip wasn’t flowers. It was an empty egg - now a symbol to them of new life and hope. It was Phillip, the "different" child, who had helped his friends see the wonderful hope in the message of Easter.

Janet Fischer 82
Janet moved on to be with our Lord and Savior in the loving arms of her family on January 12, 2024, in her home.
A devout Christian, Janet was born June 5, 1941, to Irma Bell and Ernest Walter Wilkins in Monroe, Michigan. She was second of six children including Karen(Phil), Connie (Jay), Frederick, Roger (Linda), and Gayle.
On June 6, 1968, she was married to Raymond Fischer (80) of Toledo, Ohio, and had sons Brian Fischer (53) of Blissfield, Michigan, and Jason Fischer (50) of Riga, Michigan. Her four grandchildren included Justin (Colleen), Jessica, Christian, and Katie Fischer.
At the age of three, her family moved into their home on Custer Drive and she was so proud to be able to remain in the same house until her death. She attended Whittier and Devilbiss schools. One of her proudest accomplishments was playing trumpet in the band under the direction of Sam Szor who was also the conductor of the Music Under the Stars at the Toledo Zoo.
She worked as a secretary at Toledo Scale, France Stone, Haughton Elevator, Devilbiss, Jeep Corporation, and was a Kelley Girl. Later in life, she was a self employed typist, cleaned houses, and took care of the elderly.
Her hobbies included knitting, playing the piano and trumpet, and cooking up a spread for whoever would come to her home.
