Roydon R. “Robbie” Fisher, 59, of Lapel, passed away at home surrounded by family on Friday, November 26, 2021 following a courageous three-year battle with cancer. He was born in Noblesville, IN on March 5, 1962 to James and Jane (Harvey) Fisher.
Robbie, a lifelong resident of Lapel, graduated from Lapel High School in 1980. He worked at Brockway Glass before joining the team at Elite Roofing in Noblesville where he worked for about 20 years. Toward the end of his life, though, he was fortunate to find his dream job — he became a truck driver for Bluegrass Farms in Anderson. He loved being on the road and seeing new places.
Robbie married his soul mate, Sandy Chaney, whom he met at a skating rink in Noblesville when he was 18 years old. Together they had two children, Zach and Danielle, both of which he was very proud of. As a family, they loved to attend concerts at Deer Creek, go camping, and vacation in his favorite place, California. Robbie loved to ride motorcycles and care for his dogs, but he will always be remembered for the love that he had for his family – especially his children and grandchildren.
Robbie is survived by his loving wife of 41 years, Sandy; one son, Zachariah Fisher of Lapel; one daughter, Danielle (Chase) Walden of Lapel; two sisters, Brenda (Larry) Inskeep of McCordsville and Edie (Dan) Thompson of Lapel; six grandchildren, Draven Fisher, Ashe Fisher, McKenna Abel, Colton Walden, Charlee Walden and Cooper Walden; and many extended family members whom he loved dearly.
He is preceded in death by his parents and his brothers, James “Jimmie” and Paul.
A celebration of Robbie’s life will be held at The Lodge on Main Street (808 N. Main Street, Lapel) on Sunday, December 19th from 3pm-6pm.
Robbie was so great to work with. He did indeed love his semi driving!!! It has been a great pleasure to have crossed paths with Robbie. He will be deeply missed. My thoughts and prayers are with sandy and family.-Kris H
To Sandy, kids, & gradkids,
Robbie’s Dad & my Dad were friends & volunteer fire fighters together. The fire fighters had family get togethers often so I got to know the Fisher family, plus I think they, along with me & every other kid in town, spent the better part of the summer days at the swimming pool. Robbie was always laughing and joking around. He always had a smile on his lips and mischief in his eyes. I pray that the whole Fisher Family will find comfort in their many fond memories.
Hugs & Prayers
Sandy,
We are so sorry . Hope, peace and love to you and your family.

Robbie always had a smile whenever I Saw him. Sandy, my heart goes out to you and the kids. I am so very sorry for your loss.
Words can’t express how truly sorry i am for your loss Sandy. You had a wonderful man and partner. I won’t tell you that things will get better. It probably won’t! It’s the little things, the memories, that keep us going. In our younger life we all spent good times together. Now we can only try to catch up on media. I would love to think that we still have a CHANEY bond. Times have pushed us in different directions. But I for one love and appreciate my CHANEY Heritance! I miss you dearly Sandy. I love you always
