Our Stories

The Fisher House in St. Louis strives to provide the best experience for our guests, but it is the families who truly transform this house into a home. This is the true magic of the Fisher House: people check in as strangers and leave as family.

The Fisher House replaces trepidation with solace.  As my father’s life-journey is nearing its end, emotions are muddled.  In addition to feelings of inevitable loss there are also practical fears: The fears of travelling alone to an unknow city; fear of personal safety; fear of financial affordability.  The lifeline the Fisher House extends brings immeasurable peace, comfort, support, and relief-every detail has been thoughtfully provided.  Big things such as food, shelter, and safety but also fine details such as a box of Kleenex never more than an arm’s length away.  Toiletries, cozy bathrobes, computer, occasion cards, washer/dryer, movies, books, etc., etc.  Thank you.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Justine you are so awesome, and Thank you Vanniecia for helping me find my phone, The Fisher House is Truly a Home away from Home. I have a problem writing my feelings down on paper, but I have given out 6 pamphlets this week praising the love and caring I have gotten from everyone here and telling them of this awesome Home. Thank You Ann for keeping this home so clean. Love You All.
