"That sums him up," his father Mike Fisher said as tears ran down his face. David was living and working at Wanaka as a tour guide and had texted his mother Kate Fisher that he would be back home to Mount Maunganui in time for Christmas. David left school to travel Europe solo at age 15, travelling to Bali, India and many other places around the world.
