Lawrence A. Fischer, CPA, 68, passed July 22 surrounded by his family and friends. Born in Bronxville, NY to Martin Fischer and Jane Losee and raised in Nutley, NJ, he came to St. Petersburg for college and established his accounting practice. Larry supported philanthropic and social justice efforts and took leadership positions in professional organizations, serving as Florida President of the Society of Accountants, the Society of Professional Accountants, and the Association of Independent Accountants. Away from his office, Larry enjoyed travel and being near any body of water - whether home by the pool, the island cabin in Homosassa, or his lakefront farmhouse in SC. Undaunted by health concerns until recently, Larry embodied the Gonzo quote: "Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, 'Wow! What a ride!'" He is survived by a large family, countless friends, grateful colleagues, and Monty - his life partner of fifty years. Always avoiding public displays of pain or regret, Larry emphatically chose not to have a funeral service and would rather you remember him whenever you raise a glass of cheap but surprisingly good wine. You might also choose to honor him with a donation to The Foundation for Sustainable Families at http://www.sustainablefamiliesfoundation.org/ or Pinellas Youth Pride, Inc. at (727) 577-6072. Clients of Larry's may contact his associates by phone at 727-791-4020 or by email at [email protected].
