<div itemprop="description">Hansj&ouml;rg (Hans) Fischer passed away peacefully on February 10, 2015 in his 82nd year. He will be sadly missed by wife Eleonore (n&eacute;e Gengenbach), siblings Elisabeth Seipel (Klaus) and Ernst Fischer (Hilde), his children Eleanor, Michael (Janice), and Carl, and extended family on his &ldquo;geliebter Schw&auml;bischen Alb.&rdquo; He was a beloved Opa to Peter and Emily, and a proud uncle to Peer and Claudia. Born in Brackenheim, he completed his apprenticeship in Germany and Sweden, and then immigrated to Canada in 1957, eventually settling in Don Mills. During a career which spanned more than 50 years, primarily with LL Solty and Sons, he was involved with landscaping such prominent GTA landmarks as the Inn on the Park, the Four Seasons Sheraton Hotel, Ontario Place, McMaster University, and Canada&rsquo;s Wonderland. <br /> <br />We mourn the loss not only of the man, but of his wry sense of humour and encyclopaedic knowledge. <br /> <br />In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to The Heart and Stroke Foundation, and Sunnybrook Health Sciences Prostate Research.</div>
