Ray M. Fisher.
Sheriff Ray Fisher was shot and killed in Buffalo, Indiana while attempting to serve warrants on two brothers for bank robbery. One of the men opened fire, killing Sheriff Fisher and wounded his deputy. The man then shot and killed his brother and then himself. After he died, his wife was appointed to fill the post, and at that time was the first and only female sheriff in Indiana. Sheriff Fisher was a United States Army World War I veteran and had served with the White County Sheriff's Department for just over two years.

In tribute
I served 1985 to 1993. You served too, before the badge - different uniform, same idea. You go where you are sent and you do not get to pick the call.
Sheriff Fisher gave the White County Sheriff's Department 2 years.
Thank you for your service to the Monticello community, and for your service before it. Gone but never to be forgotten.
Rest easy, brother.
— S. Vincent Anthony, U.S. Army 1985-1993
