Honoring Norma Jean Fisher's Legacy


Norma Jean Fisher was an enthusiastic entomologist, poet, thespian, family historian - and a proud supporter of public television. She found joy, intellectual stimulation, and lifelong learning through IdahoPTV. 

Her estate gift now fuels our future, and her family is paying it forward by encouraging others to leave a similar legacy.

Thanks to her generosity, the Norma Jean Fisher Trust is making additional gifts to the IdahoPTV Endowment for every completed Gift Intent Form we receive.
