Love and prayers to you, AMF. May God bless you and your family during this time. We were blessed to share some "virtual" stories and laughs with you and Uncle Fletcher via Zoom earlier this month, and for that we will forever be thankful. We will be down soon to see you and give you in person hugs. In the meantime, please know we love you so very much and send you healing thoughts and prayers.

It was such a shock to learnt about your husband passing. His warmth and kind nature will never be forgotten. Please accept my deepest condolences. Jacqueline Smith (Waitress from Aunt Sarah's).

Mary Fran and family, my deepest sympathy and prayers. What a loss to all of you and the Richmond community organizations in which he invested his time. I remember with joy all the years I worked with Fletcher at Holy Comforter.

From our days at W&L I admired Fletcher in many ways. Above all, in his ministry and personal life he was a man of his convictions and faith. He represented the best in the Christian faith and its messages of love and forgiveness. HIs work and his influence will be felt for generations. My thoughts and love to Mary Fran and the family.

Elizabeth, even way back there in the day, as they say, I knew your dad was not just nice, but also good - there´s a difference. First, his daughter, you, had given some degree of thought to issues most your age had not. And second, even though I was completely clueless about most things, important and unimportant, and even though your father realized this, he was still willing to give me the benefit of the doubt. Hang in there and please relay my relevant regards to your family.
