Emily Showe-Fisher

Emily Schowe-Fisher, 63, of Beaumont, died August 19, 2020 at home after courageously fighting metastatic breast cancer for the past 18 months. Emily was born in Ogden, Utah, to Rudolph and Beverly Schowe, on October 5, 1956 and her family soon returned to Berger, Missouri, where she spent her childhood and teenage years. Emily enlisted in the US Army in August of 1975 and was honorably discharged in August of 1978. She graduated from the very first “co-ed” class of basic training recruits of the US Army, at Fort Jackson, South Carolina.

Emily eventually moved to Twin Falls, Idaho after her military service, where she gave birth to her most precious child, Sondra Renee Hernandez, who survives her. She later moved to Beaumont, Texas where she married her husband of 18 years, Ernie Fisher, who also survives her.

Emily is also survived by a sister, Stacy Garza (husband, Lewis and children, Esther and Isaiah) all of Georgetown, Texas. Emily is also survived by her brother, Jeff Schowe (wife, Gina) of Lenoir, North Carolina.

Emily was preceded in death by her father, Rudolph Schowe, her mother, Beverly Bowers, and a nephew, Austin Schowe.

Emily loved spending time with her family and extended group of friends, especially during the fall holidays. From Thanksgiving through Easter, her house was always meticulously decorated with various ornamental items depicting the holidays, many of which she created herself. She loved spending time outdoors at the beach, the lakes, or deer camp.

Cremation arrangements are being handled by Broussard’s Crematorium under the direction of Broussard’s, 1605 North Major Drive, Beaumont. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.

A celebration of life will be held sometime in the future in Beaumont. Meanwhile graveside services are being arranged in her childhood home of Berger, Missouri, at St. Johns Cemetery, where she wished to be buried with her beloved grandparents, father, and other members of the Schowe clan.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Julie Rogers Gift of Life Program, 2390 Dowlen Road, Beaumont, Texas 77706 or your charity of choice.
