Carolyn Yvonne (Brandenburg) Fishack passed away on Sunday, April 3, 2022 at Quincy Villages in Waynesboro, PA. She was the loving wife of Robert L. Fishack for 55 years before his passing in 2002. Carolyn was born October 25, 1929 at her home in Foxville, Md., the fifth child of Ray and Rae (Hauver) Brandenburg. She graduated from Thurmont High School and Hagerstown Business College. She was employed as an executive secretary for Fairchild Industries over a period of 30 years and at locations from Hagerstown, to St. Augustine, Fl. to Germantown, Md., retiring in 1987. She was an active member of many community organizations in both Foxville, and later in Frederick, Md., including Mt. Moriah Lutheran Church and as a founding member of the Frederick Senior Recreation Council, serving on the Board, running field trips, and singing with the Golden Tones, who traveled to nursing homes in both Frederick and Washington Counties to provide entertainment. She volunteered 4,000 hours at Select Seconds Thrift Shop, a fund-raising arm of Frederick Health Hospital. Carolyn loved music and had artistic talent that came out in the many crafts she enjoyed, flowers she arranged and dried. Her love of people came out in those craft items she gifted, and beautiful music she sang and played on the piano.
