Jeffrey Alan Fisher, 53, of Barberton, Ohio, was shot and killed after a brief verbal dispute on September 27, 2022. Fisher, remembered for his love of motorcycles, dogs and playing pool, is survived by his father, step‑mother, children, grandchildren, siblings and numerous nieces and nephews.

The shooting prompted an investigation and later legal proceedings. On October 8, 2024, Eric Mendoza pled guilty to murder with a gun specification and was sentenced in Summit County Common Pleas Court by Judge Joy Malek Oldfield to life with parole eligibility after 18 years. The prosecution said the sentence was offered in the hope it would provide some comfort to Fisher’s family.

Does anyone in Barberton or the surrounding area remember the dispute or have information about events that night?
