She was born in Mercer on Dec. 15, 1937, a daughter of the late Jay E. and Irene (Williams) Fisher. On Valentines Day, Feb. 14, 1958, she married Edward L. McQuiston who became her partner for life, owning and operating McQuiston’s General Store and McQuiston Oil for many years.

She was a member of Mount Hope United Methodist Church, New Vernon Township, and a member of the Stoneboro Order of the Eastern Star, Chapter 110.

Always able to strike up a conversation, she could often be found talking to most anyone, whether it be a friend or a stranger. She is remembered as a beautiful and loving person who always offered words of encouragement and was able to see the best in everyone.
